The empowerment of the out-of-school youth in the Philippines got a shot in the arm with the conceptualization of an innovative mobile classroom project in Cebu.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The project called the \u201cMobile KART Project\u201d and proposed by SEED4COM got a further boost after it was declared as one of the Top Three winners at the \u201cTaiwan Excellence: Sharing is Caring\u201d philanthropic campaign that started last year. Winning the campaign means the opportunity to create more mobile classrooms that will benefit more out-of-school youth in many other areas in Cebu.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The aim was noble: to assist Cebu\u2019s youth, particularly from poor and marginalized families, and provide them with free access to education with diverse and free-of-charge training courses that will hopefully educate them even in the midst of a debilitating pandemic.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The project will be officially inaugurated and launched on October 2022 at several locations in Cebu City such as Lapu-Lapu City, Cordoba, and Olango Island, among others. It would become doubly significant since the launch will coincide with the holding of the annual Taiwan-Philippines Joint Economic Conference.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The innovative and creative Mobile KART is not just any mobile classroom. It comes equipped with solar panels, laptops, an LED TV display, audio system and even routers for mobile internet connectivity, and all are Taiwan Excellence Award-winning products.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Mobile KART Project offers courses such as \u201cTransformative Educational Access for the Communities and Homes\u201d and also \u201cTechnology Vocational Livelihood Skills Training.\u201d These courses are meant to teach the poor youth in Cebu\u2019s poverty-stricken areas with valuable life skills, particularly the benefits of reading. Hopefully, the skills will equip them with knowledge they can use to improve livelihood or pursue higher education when given the opportunity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The \u201cMobile KART Project\u201d is a mobile classroom that originated in Cebu and was part of several initiatives related to education by Sustainable Energy and Enterprise Development for Communities or SEED4COM (https:\/\/www.seed4com.org\/<\/a>). The organization was established to help improve human conditions and empowering poverty-stricken areas, rural and last-mile communities in the Philippines.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Truly, the \u201cMobile KART Project\u201d winning at the \u201cTaiwan Excellence: Sharing is Caring\u201d was a proud moment not just for SEED4COM but also for the country, according to Dann Diez, Executive Director of SEED4COM, considering the huge number of entries.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Organized by the Bureau of Foreign Trade (BOFT) and the Taiwan External Trade Development Council (TAITRA), the vision of \u201cTaiwan Excellence: Sharing is Caring\u201d was to help make society a better place by giving everyone an opportunity to raise ideas about charity and other altruistic activities related to the sustainable development of society and environmental protection by utilizing products of Taiwan Excellence.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
