Poverty! No More
I usually have interaction with lot of people who are deprived of latest technology and hence the gap of communication and working environment between the well literate and illiterate is increasing day by day, causing the level of poverty to increase.
The solution i have in my mind is to educate a team on How to spread the pros of using technology and its effects in modern life, How to interact with technology and how it can be used for the betterment of lifestyle. This team will go to the rural areas and educate the people in the easiest possible way.
People need opportunity to pursue their dreams and we are providing different opportunities on How to make use of the latest technology for betterment of lifestyle..
In cities this problem is almost negligible but in rural areas and sub rubs, that constitute more than 50 % of the population, this problem is present extensively.
In a rough estimate 80 million people are currently affected in Pakistan.
Our solution is basically focused upon the rural areas in order to target 100 % population.
We recently had a visit to a village and we interacted we locals out there. We had a pleasant meeting on how technology has affected the lives of people positively. How people are getting benefit and are ultimately improving their lifestyle.
The solution provides opportunities along with comprehensive training on how you can use technology for business and different online income sources that can help to reduce poverty and make the life style better.
We are providing training's, affordable technology that is essential and various opportunities free of cost that can be a potential source.
- Increase opportunities for people - especially those traditionally left behind and most marginalized – to access digital and 21st century skills, meet employer demands, and access the jobs of today and tomorrow
- Upskill, reskill, or retrain workers in the industries most affected by technological transformations
- Concept
In Pakistan people are working upon latest trends in technology.. New startups are being set up. But People of rural areas are being neglected completely in terms of technology. Not even a single firm has its focus on these areas that constitute over about 50 % of the population.
I believe that the people of my country have a huge potential to learn, grow and innovate if provided suitable opportunities along with guidance.
Our idea focuses on the completely neglected population to transform their lives which will in return serve as a huge step in ending poverty and improving the lifestyles.
We will be interacting with villagers, training them about technology, providing affordable tech products, sharing opportunities and mentoring them.
We think in this age of technology that is advancing by leaps and bounds everyday, we can use it for the betterment of lives of people that are deprived of the luxuries that few rich people are enjoying. Even basic necessities are missing in various areas. Technology, i believe if used effectively and productively can serve as a purpose to end poverty along with illetracy.

The number of people we are currently serving is about 25.
Next year our focus is to make it 2500.
In five years it would turn around 2.5 Million.
Next year we are planning to up size our team so that we can cover a large area effectively with more advanced technology. We are currently working upon statistics about our future target areas.
By the will of Allah Almighty, we will be establishing our sub offices in five different countries. Every office will serve for our cause in their respective location and hence the numbers of people benefiting will increase drastically
We are in search of a sincere team that is quite hectic to find.
We are working upon training's in local languages.
We are in search of most affordable tech products and internet services.
We have firm plans to prepare a great team and find some supportive mentors who are doing this work internationally. We are working upon the idea at a fast pace and these challenges will be overcome in the coming few weeks. We are talking with different tech companies for a contract.
- I am planning to expand my solution to one or more of ServiceNow’s primary markets
We have plans to expand our idea to the whole world. These countries are in our lists for mentor ship, training's and technology products. We are focusing to set up our office in Europe very soon to cover it. I am sure people will love it.
- Not registered as any organization
Our team is composed of various tech geeks who are already using technology as a source of income. We have over five years experience in providing training's on various topics to community, students, and professionals. We are providing mentor ship to various individuals already.
We are working completely on our own.
As soon as our idea gets implemented we will be charging a nominal fee per month for all the individuals who have started to earn over $1000 a month. This will be the base funding.
We will be crowd funding for our project with a 20 % equity in our company.
Digital Workforce Challenge seems to be aligned with our idea. We need mentor ship and guidance in current phase and i guess that it is the best platform we can find it.
