Digital Empowerment Bus e-Zest

This initiative has been launched under the aegis of the Digital Pune Mission with an objective to empower at least one person per low-income household in Pune with basic digital literacy skills. This translates to over 2 lakh citizens to be trained. PMC, in association with Pune City Connect and NASSCOM Foundation, had launched this mission in 2017 as part of the development plans for Pune and to encourage the national agenda of achieving Digital Literacy under the National Digital Literacy Mission (NDLM). 40000 citizens have been trained thus far under this large scale public private partnership that is benefitting the low-income communities of Pune.

Dr. Ganesh Natarajan, Chairman, Pune City Connect, said, " The Pune City Connect is happy to join hands with e-Zest on this Digital Empowerment bus, which will train 600 learners per year in internet-related skills. Thanks to the support of PMC and several corporate donors, 21 Digital Empowerment centres and buses have been set-up and more than 40000 citizens trained. We look forward to further participation by corporates so as to take this mission further."
