An initiative to close the digital gap among senior citizens took place on Monday as the Wiki for Senior Citizens Network, a Non-Governmental Organisation, organized a training and excursion in the Federal Capital Territory. Part of the Wiki loves Africa annual campaign, the program is designed to enhance digital literacy and improve technological skills among the elderly population.
This effort underscores the growing need to equip seniors with digital tools and knowledge, ensuring they can navigate an increasingly technology-driven world.
