Each of these chapters works on three local projects, mingling with local communities. They will also be involved in one national and one international project each year. Thus we provide them an opportunity to learn by doing. 

Ms Shyla Talluri stated that as part of the international project, a couple of chapters will be taken to the World Economic Forum, which will be held this month from January 20 to 24 at Davos.

On the occasion, a repurposed Laptop was presented to a poor girl Marampelli Madhumitha who is pursuing a Diploma in Polytechnic at Princeton Institute of Engineering Technology for Women studying in her second year in Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning(AIML)diploma. The girl’s parents could not provide her with a laptop. PURE has come forward and donated a second-hand high-end laptop.

Madhumita, the recipient, said it would go a long way toward empowering the girl students from rural Telangana.  

Many companies have unused devices such as laptops, tablets, smartphones, or desktops in usable condition.  Such devices, if donated, can be repurposed and put to good use. Such devices will enable online education for children from low-income backgrounds said Venkat, uncle and the guardian of Madhumita.
