The society’s digitalization activities
We are continuing our society digitalization activities, conceived initially during the pandemic, to address emerging needs that remain relevant today. In 2023, the importance of digital technology in shaping our societal structures continued to be a major focus. At the ST Foundation, we understand that digital tools and connectivity are crucial for personal and professional development across all segments of society. As a result, our commitment to digital inclusion has remained steadfast, aiming to ensure that everyone, regardless of their socio-economic background, has access to the opportunities provided by digital technologies. In this direction, we devoted our efforts to enhancing our initiatives that bridge the digital divide among contexts that have been underserved or overlooked in the digital landscape. By providing tools, training, and support, we strive to create a more equitable digital future for all. Our key activities this year included:
- Donation of equipment: we have continued to equip those in need with the tools essential for accessing digital content and services, ensuring that these resources reach the hands of those who need them most.
- Promotion of digital careers: with the job market increasingly favoring digital literacy, we have strongly emphasized introducing teenagers to potential technological careers, opening new pathways to future success.
- Coding course for children: to foster a foundational understanding of technology from a young age, we introduced coding courses that encourage critical thinking and creativity among children.
