EDUCATION THE KEY TO AFRICA FUTURE

Educating the next generation of Africa is vital not only to Africa but also to the world. Quite simply, like poverty and disease, illiteracy and ignorance affect all people around the world. Education remains Africa's most powerful development engine.Educational and cultural programs emphasize adult literacy, childhood literacy, and computer educational projects. Davs computer training project will seek computers and equipment for schools and community groups in Ghana.

DAVS goal is to widen access to basic computers for educational purposes in Ghana, where often there is no public access to computer technology. The program aims to increase basic computer skills and encourage computer education. The program is also a medium for encouraging cultural exchange between Ghana and participating countries.We believe that the spread of education in science and technology can be the key to a country's future economic independence and prosperity.Africa does not only like food,clothing,shelter,water but need technological advancement. The African people have a great desire to learn and to utilize the tools of modern technology. DAVS believe that if we provide the seed, this capability will flourish."
