ICTA-Intel joint program to promote IT-literacy in Srilanka
Information and Communication Technology Agency (ICTA) of Srilanka in collaboration with Intel has recently launched the 'e-Srilanka PC Program' in order to improve the dismal state computer literacy among masses. This programme fosters the UN Millennium Development Goals and World Summit on Information Society charter to ‘bridge the digital divide”. Under this program, Intel will be providing low cost PCs to the common people, loaded with open source software. The progarm will aim to increase the general public awareness toward benefits of owning and using PC and help in creating a knowledge society.
