Digital Didi Changing Mindsets, Practices and Narratives
DEF is committed towards creating sustainable employment opportunities. Taking this forward, DEF, along with Pyar Trust and Equally Able Foundation’s support, started a multidimensional educational toolkit, aiming to transform the traditional methods of learning into experience based functional literacy through the pedagogy of discovery in order to build capacities of students towards the subjects of Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts and Mathematics. The program is implemented in four locations in Delhi, Haryana and Pondicherry. While helping students to innovate and experiment, it enables them with life skills, critical thinking and problem-solving abilities, simultaneously stimulating scientific and intuitive minds. As Osama Manzar, founder & director of DEF, said: “The students of Pyar Trust have shown that they have a lot of potential, what we need to do is give them the opportunity to achieve their potential and that is the purpose of this makerspace; to give them a space to express themselves and innovate and grow.”
