To cover subjects like smartphone usage, govt services, online money payment & social media
EXPLOITERS, beware: the migrant workers at your disposal will soon be equipped with the knowledge to question ill practices against them and even amplify them through social media. With the Kerala State Literacy Mission revamping its 'Hamari Malayalam' textbook provided to interstate migrants as part of the 'Changathi' project, many of them will now attain digital, legal, and health literacy. Officials are trying to launch the new textbook in the upcoming phase of the programme, which is expected to start after September.
Four phases of 'Changathi' have nearly been completed across all districts, with only a few remaining to write the exams. The three-month teaching programme, held on days convenient to migrants, has been a great success since its inception in 2017, with 8,527 people having passed the examination so far. While the current textbooks have proved helpful for migrants, a holistic upgrading of the curriculum has become a necessity, which will be done with the support of MG University's Centre for Migration Policy and Inclusive Governance.
