Empowering with technology

with a new approach

Empowering with technology

Assam Investment Advisory Society plays a significant role in empowering women by promoting education, training and professional development for women.

   It is not just enough to enrol girls and women in education and training programmes; it is equally important that they receive a quality education, in order to ensure appropriate learning outcomes. Technology enables girls and women to have an equal quality education, which leads to personal development, allowing them to manage their lives. There is the need to instil confidence among women so that they can be as good as men in both using and improving the technology.

 With an objective to empower women, Assam Investment Advisory Society donated computers to the Indian Technical (ITI) for Women in Guwahati, Assam.
