In partnership with Idara-e-Taleem-o-Aagahi (ITA) and the Gilgit-Baltistan Department of Education, Meta is bringing its digital literacy program, “WeThinkDigital,” to Gilgit-Baltistan.
The initiative seeks to provide residents of one of the most marginalized areas of the nation with the knowledge and abilities they need to behave responsibly online.
Meta anticipates training more than 30,000 pupils and more than 10,000 women through the extension of the WeThinkDigital initiative to the Gilgit-Baltistan subregion of Pakistan to assist them in thinking critically and sharing online wisely.
“Really thank Meta for assisting people of Gilgit-Baltistan with a big program of this caliber and magnitude,” stated Lt.Col. (R) Abaidullah Baig, Senior Minister Industries, Labour, and Commerce, Gilgit-Baltistan.
One of Meta’s many strategies for creating a secure and informed society in Pakistan is the WeThinkDigital program, which was launched there in 2021.
Through a series of easily available learning modules, the initiative has reached 130,000 students and 3,094 instructors in 28 districts throughout the nation.
It has given them the tools they need to be aware and secure online as well as the ability to think critically and share online with consideration.
