The Government of Sindh has taken a ground-breaking step towards transforming education by introducing the concept of a Digital Union Council through the Sindh Education Foundation.
Pursuing the vision of the Honorable Chief Minister of Sindh, Syed Murad Ali Shah, and the unwavering commitment of the Honorable Minister for Education & Literacy, Sindh, Syed Sardar Ali Shah, the Sindh Education Foundation (SEF) under the leadership of its Managing Director, Mr. Gahanwer Ali Laghari, has announced plans to establish a model digital union council in Karachi in collaboration with Teach the World Foundation (TTWF). For this initiative, Micro-schools will be established to provide quality learning opportunities for out-of-school children, setting a benchmark for innovation and inclusivity in the education sector.
