Connect to Learn

Achieving universal education and gender equality are key development challenges and two key Millennium Development Goals (MDGs). Research consistently shows that investing in girls’ education makes good economic sense. Ericsson believes that Information and Communications Technology (ICT) can be a transformative force in realizing these two MDGs.

In September 2010 we launched Connect To Learn as a public-private partnership promoting access to and quality of secondary school education. Our on-the-ground work focuses on providing school scholarships targeting girls and by implement ICT solutions in schools. Ericsson is providing expertise and technical solutions in this partnership with Millennium Promise and the Earth Institute at Columbia University.
