Our Story - The Urgency of Access

The challenge of education during COVID-19 exposed a frightening truth: a successful life is often impossible without digital literacy and reliable internet access. In Balochistan, thousands of students were denied online classes due to severe inaccessibility, highlighting the vast gap we aim to close.

This crisis is compounded by national data. According to the UNDP, only 17 percent of Pakistan’s people use the internet, with Balochistan falling significantly short. This digital divide impacts every sector, from agricultural productivity (where farmers lack vital information) to social inclusion.

“We believe that by making technology and innovation accessible at their doorstep, we can empower rural communities, bringing education and knowledge where they are needed most
