IIT-Madras extends training labs to 20 rural schools

“1 Lab - 1 School”, a rural mentorship programmefrom the Indian Institute of Technology Madras (IIT-M), does by letting high school students dismantle and reassemble the appliances on their own. The program connects top graduate laboratories of premier institutes to high schools in rural areas, and aims to empower rural communities by addressing barriers to digital inclusion. Q&A sessions, demonstration-based lectures, etc. are some of the other learning activities in the training. Expansion to 15 more schools is aimed for next year.
