e-vidya (IT Skills)

Despite the fact that computer science has exploded in popularity in the last five decades because humankind has become extremely dependent on technology, it remains a fact that women are not engaging with it at the same pace as men. Many Indian women are denied access to these essential computing disciplines because of societal and cultural barriers. The primary reason for this disconnect is the fact that computer science is often an elective subject in schools. And it has created a longstanding dilemma of prioritizing education over technology.

Birlasoft analyzed this concern and introduced a Corporate Social Responsibility Program - e-vidya with the vision Digital literacy in Indian women.
