MKCL has set forth a transformative agenda in
the Indian context wherein Information
Technology has created unprecedented wealth for
few enterprises in India, however, the masses
have been largely deprived of the great
developmental potential and the fruits of
Information Technology. This Digital Divide is
potential threat for development not only of
India but also of many other countries in the
world.
MKCL is an entrepreneurial endeavor to bridge
this Digital Divide and resultant Knowledge
Divide by offering actionable knowledge to the
masses for socio-economic transformation in
emerging knowledge society.
Present global context demands synthesis of a
new paradigm of education to address the
following challenges simultaneously viz.:
How to offer education
-
to very large populations with various
diversities,
-
at an affordable cost,
-
with a high quality of relevance and
applicability in life and work,
-
within a shortest possible time,
-
with a wide accessibility from metros to
villages and,
-
in a mass-personalized manner.
MKCL is attempting to address these six
challenges simultaneously through the
exploitation of IT and help lay the foundations
of knowledge society so critical for the
survival, development and empowerment of the
masses in general and youth in particular. |
