CARDET Donates Laptops to Students in Need Through INCLUDE-CE Project Pilot at CASA College, Nicosia


On October 24, 2024, the INCLUDE-CE Project officially launched its pilot phase at CASA College in Nicosia, with 40 participants, focusing on enhancing the digital literacy and employability of migrants, refugees, asylum seekers, and ethnic minorities.
During the pilot session, CARDET donated laptops to 10 students in need to Casa College and Kasa High School, recognizing their academic excellence, active participation, and dedication to their studies. These laptops, repurposed for training, enabled the students to engage in modules focused on digital literacy and employability. Each recipient was honored by Casa College with a personalized speech celebrating their achievements, making it a heartfelt and proud moment for everyone involved.
The INCLUDE-CE pilot highlighted how the circular economy can contribute to a sustainable future by blending skill development with environmental awareness. Most participants, who hail from less developed regions, benefited from tailored training resources designed to improve their readiness for the labor market.
Co-funded by the European Union, the project aims to bridge the digital divide by enhancing the technological skills and resilience of these vulnerable groups. By repurposing second-hand digital devices for educational purposes, the initiative incorporates circular economy principles, promoting both social inclusion and environmental sustainability. Key outputs of the project include the development of an e-learning platform and specialized training resources, both aimed at empowering marginalized communities with equal access to the digital world.
