The Digi School Campaign: Transforming Digital Literacy in Nepalese Schools

2nd January 2026, Kathmandu

In an era where technology defines global progress, the ‘Digi School’ campaign has emerged as a cornerstone for digital literacy in Nepal.

The Digi School Campaign

With a mission to bridge the digital divide, this initiative is transforming the way students learn, teachers instruct, and school administrations operate across the country.

The Digital Shift in Nepalese Education

For years, the traditional Nepalese classroom relied heavily on rote learning and physical textbooks. However, the Digi School campaign is steering a transition toward a more interactive and practical “ICT-integrated” pedagogical approach.

By making technology accessible and affordable, the campaign ensures that students in both urban and rural areas are not left behind in the 21st-century global economy.

Core Initiatives of the Digi School Campaign

The success of Digi School lies in its holistic approach to education. Rather than just providing hardware, the program focuses on building a sustainable ecosystem through:

Smart Classroom Implementation: Replacing traditional chalkboards with interactive smart boards and high-quality online teaching materials.

Teacher Empowerment: Providing comprehensive training on digital tools and modern teaching methods to ensure educators can lead the digital transition effectively.

Skill-Based Learning: Offering programs focused on coding, artificial intelligence (AI), and robotics from an early age.

Administrative Modernization: Implementing digital management systems for student records, attendance tracking, and seamless parent-teacher communication.

A Visionary Goal for the Next Generation

Bigyan Shrestha, Chairman of the Digi Group, views digital literacy as the bedrock of national development. During a recent update, he noted:

“Digital literacy is not just a contemporary requirement; it is the foundation for building the country’s future. Our goal is to empower students to be tech-savvy, creative, and competitive on a global stage.”

The campaign has already reached 250 schools across Nepal, with a specific focus on rural and underserved communities to ensure equitable access to technology.

Celebrating 5 Years: Expanding Beyond the Classroom

As Digi School enters its fifth year of operation, it has expanded its services to address the broader well-being of the Nepalese student community. New milestones include:

Digi Medical Services: Providing health check-ups directly within school premises.

Student Insurance: Introducing group accident insurance to provide a safety net for families.

Conclusion: Building a Digitally Competent Nepal

The Digi School campaign stands as a benchmark for public-private collaboration in education. By fostering a culture of innovation and safe internet usage, it is preparing a “digitally competent generation” ready to lead Nepal into a new era of prosperity.
