Telecentres are
being used as the most popular business models
which are working successfully
both in rural and urban areas with a diverse range of services.
Our extensive knowledge in this
field enables us to provide expertise and consultancy for
designing and establishing a telecentre, including detailed
study of local needs, skill and capabilities of the local
community, infrastructure requirements and human resource needs,
funding options, for the successful implementation.
For every project we conduct
thorough needs assessment to identify the needs of a particular
area and based on our assessment we design a telecentre which is
fully capable of addressing community needs and which will be
adopted by the community.

A major objective of
telecentres is to allow access to information and communication
technologies to the underserved marginalized population and
reduce the digital divide.
To fulfill the multiple needs of
the community and ensure that every member of the society can
benefit from the telecentre, it is essential to create
multipurpose telecentres.
The vast experience and
extensive knowledge of our ICT experts allows us to create
strategies for the design and establishment of multipurpose
telecentres including comprehensive needs assessment to analyze
and indicate the critical needs of the community.
Skill development is the most
effective way to reduce unemployment among the youth of
developing countries. Vocational training refers to training the
learners for careers or professions that are traditionally non
academic and directly related to a trade or occupation.
We have created strategic
alliances with world renowned Vocational training institutes and
are capable of designing and establishing Vocational Training
Centres including detailed study of local industry needs, skill
and capabilities of the local community, infrastructure
requirements and human resource needs, funding options, for the
successful implementation of the Centres.
Telemedicine is the
most effective solution to provide medical services available to
the underserved marginalized communities without ant medical
facility in the nearby vicinity.
Our extensive knowledge in this
field enables us to provide expertise and consultancy for
designing and establishing telemedicine Centres, including
detailed study of communication methods, infrastructure
requirements and human resource needs and funding options, for
the successful implementation.
We can analyze and
recommend the most reliable and cost effective communication
solution for telemedicine along with complete project management
for the deployment of the solutions at telemedicine sites.
We envision the creation and
implementation of a first-of-its-kind Assistive Technology
Centre (ATC) that from its inception is aware and cognizant of
disabilities and special needs by type, by gender, by age and
the assistive technologies to help address them.
We envision bringing together
research, the latest assistive technology software/hardware
products, the work to achieve international accreditation and
certification, connection to international, local and regional
communities and associations, the building of assistive
technologies knowledge base and innovation through partnerships.
We envision the centre as a living
laboratory where ideas are tested and solutions are developed in
a hands-on, mocked-up clinical and social environment and from
where appropriate and tested technologies can be deployed. A
centre where new and advanced ideas are not lucky exceptions to
the rule, but rather a centre where innovations rule the day as
an integral part of operations and normal functioning.
The field for using assistive
technology to enable people with disabilities and special needs
is fairly broad and complex referring to the special
requirements by gender, age, type of condition, severity levels,
education levels, dexterity capabilities, cognitive abilities,
etc. To effectively and positively impact and integrate people
with disabilities and special needs into the society, a targeted
centre of excellence approach can be instrumental. We recommend
the creation of target-specific Centres of Excellence (COE) to
address the major areas of disabilities and special needs;
-
Sensory
Disorders
-
Cognitive
Disorders
-
Mobility
Disorders
-
Severely
Disorders
We suggest the following guiding
principles for ATC:
-
Inclusion - of interdisciplinary professionals,
associations and organisations
-
Participation - from professionals and the community
-
Applied Technology - of practical and proven solutions
-
Innovation - in technology and process
-
Resource Hub - for the community and the region
We at e Worldwide specialize in
creating easy to use and understand handbooks and user manuals
for multiple purposes.
Design and
establishment of sustainable Telecentres is a complex task. We
specialize in creating easily understandable Handbooks and User
manuals for telecentre creators and managers. We can create
customized handbooks for establishing different types of
telecentres including ways of conducting detailed needs
assessment, infrastructure requirements, human resource
requirements and securing funds for successful implementation of
the telecentre.
Project assessment and
evaluation is a very important step for measuring the
performance of any initiative. All ICT4D projects need to be
carefully monitored to ensure that the desired objectives are
achieved. We can create easily understandable handbooks and
user manuals for critically analyzing and evaluating ICT4D
projects.
