Schools have been urged to embrace digital transformation in education and a technology-driven approach as a critical component in preparing students for a competitive global economy where knowledge, innovation, and connectivity define the future.

Speaking at Mudavadi Girls High School, Madzuu, Tessie Musalia, Co-founder and Managing Trustee of the Foundation, said the move seeks to advance the Digital Literacy Programme (DLP) in schools, especially those in rural areas.
