Abstract

Since 1998, the Government of India has been celebrating 11 May as National
Technology Day to commemorate India’s technological achievements. It is also a day
when laboratories are open to the public at large. MSSRF celebrates Technology Day by
demonstrating how rural communities use different ICT-tools through Village Resource
Centres and Village Knowledge Centres, to improve their livelihood, self-esteem,
education, health, safety, etc.
