Government initiative; subsidized by DEPA

Main issues, needs, or priorities faced (or expressed) by villagers in accessing, and/or using digital solutions, services, or innovations (examples: reliability/strength/slow internet connection; access through local language; lack of adatpation to needs; urgently needed services not available, accessible, affordable, etc....)

This village is in the early digitalization stage, which still need improved internet infrastructure to improve internet access. Moreover, village residents have access to mobile telephony but lack awareness of digital services readily accessible locally (and require digital literacy and dedicated training programs). Finally, several digital innovations are widely used, but more training and capacity development are needed to expand use.
