By Country Records & NEG Rwanda team

Project idea Why Discover IT

A lot of people have no access to ICT yet. Not enough people see the imortance of ICT for their daily lives and societies. This should change as soon as possible, because we know: ICT is the backbone of development, job creation and prosperity of all. Therefore, the Weekly TV and Rado show brings awareness and information about the importance of ICT to youth and adults in all corners of Rwanda.

How it works By a weekly TV & Radio show of 10 minutes broadcasted by Rwanda National Television we spread awareness, solutions and benefits of ICT. What we are going to do

TV show: We interview youth in the different districts of Rwanda. We ask them what they know and think about ICT and what they want to know and learn about ICT. From the challanges and obstacels they see we give concrete solutions during the TV show as well as small ICT workshops, given by invited experts on ICT, both National as International.

Radio Show: By weekly series of dramaplay on radio we spread awareness about the importance of ICT in daily life, but also the challanges and obstacels that can be solved by ICT. Who are involved

ICT Basic Course & Train the Trainer program By the CSA team & NEG Rwanda

Project idea Why the ICT Basic course & Train the Trainer It is necessary that all youth have access to ICT, quality education and better opportunities for personal development. Therefore, extra ICT (after schooltime) training is needed. Besides this, development of ICT skills and access to good internet connects youngsters from all countries to develop themselves as world citizens, to share ideas for change and to take action for achievement on the Global Goals together.

How it works •

The OWC ICT Basic training program is developed to contribute to ICT training for all youth, also in rural areas. By this training youth learn how to use smartphones and computers for education, personal development, jobs and international collaboration.

The training is given after school time, during weekends and holidays by youngsters/students and teachers to youth. Youth who finish the ICT training succesfully will be trained to become ICT trainer of other youth. By this the number of youngsters who can train youth can increase very fast.

•

By the Train the Trainer program more youngsters/students and school teachers can be trained to give the ICT basic course to youth in their districts.

What we are going to do During 3 months youngsters will be trained in the ICT Basic course in weekends and holidays. At the end of the course they know how to use internet and social media in a safe way and how to work with computer, smartphone, the Microsoft Office package. After finishing the course successfully they receive a certificate.

The Train the Trainer program will be given online (via Skype and teamviewer) and offline, for example as Teacher Training at schools.
