The Women Children Welfare Association (WCWA), in collaboration with the Directorate of Literacy and Non-Formal Education, School Education & Literacy Department, Government of Sindh, organized a tablet distribution ceremony for facilitators working at Non-Formal Education (NFE) centres established in rural and underserved areas of District Jacobabad.
The ceremony was held at the WCWA Head Office on October 29, 2026, with the aim of promoting digital learning, strengthening educational management, and improving the monitoring of NFE centres through modern technology.

Mr. Nazimuddin Noonari, representing the Social Welfare Department, also participated in the ceremony, along with other distinguished guests, the Chief Executive Officer of WCWA, Abdul Rasheed Khoso, and facilitators from various NFE centres.
Promoting Digital Education and Effective Monitoring
The distribution of tablets represents an important step towards integrating digital technology into the non-formal education system. These devices are expected to facilitate the digital recording of student attendance, monitoring of educational activities, collection of relevant data, and assessment of centre performance.
Through the effective use of technology, the initiative aims to make the monitoring process more systematic, transparent, and efficient, particularly in rural and remote communities where access to educational resources and digital facilities remains limited.
Speaking on the occasion, participants appreciated the efforts of the Government of Sindh and the Directorate of Literacy and Non-Formal Education for introducing digital support for NFE centre facilitators. They emphasized that such initiatives can contribute significantly to improving educational quality, strengthening accountability, and ensuring better learning opportunities for out-of-school children.
Facilitators Appreciate the Government's Initiative
The NFE facilitators welcomed the provision of tablets and described it as a positive and forward-looking initiative. They expressed confidence that the devices would help them perform their responsibilities more effectively, maintain accurate attendance records, document learning activities, and improve communication and reporting with the relevant authorities.
They also appreciated the collaborative efforts of the Government of Sindh, the Directorate of Literacy and Non-Formal Education, and WCWA in supporting education for children living in rural and disadvantaged communities.
WCWA Reaffirms Its Commitment to Education
Addressing the participants, Mr. Abdul Rasheed Khoso, Chief Executive Officer of Women Children Welfare Association (WCWA), reaffirmed the organization's commitment to expanding educational opportunities for out-of-school children and strengthening non-formal education in underserved areas.
He emphasized that the integration of digital technology into education is an important step towards improving centre management, strengthening monitoring mechanisms, and enhancing the overall effectiveness of educational programmes. He further stated that WCWA would continue working in collaboration with the Government of Sindh and relevant education authorities to promote inclusive education and provide better learning opportunities for children who face barriers to formal schooling.
