e-village programme gets a boost

The e-village programme, jointly implemented by the Secondary Education Modernisation Project (SEMP) of the Ministry of Education and the President’s Office in five provinces, is aimed at empowering rural communities.

This is expected to be achieved by improving the Information Technology literacy rate, information sharing and creating employment opportunities.

The first phase of the programme was implemented in the Central, Sabaragamuwa, Western, Uva and Southern Provinces. Its second phase would see the construction of community computer centres besides the computer learning centres at schools.

The success of the programme in Mahavilachchiya had prompted President Mahinda Rajapaksa to advise the Ministry of Education to initiate the e-village concept in selected rural communities.

Accordingly, the SEMP has already established five projects in five villages. Once these projects are successfully completed, the programme would be further extended on a long-term basis.
