How the ‘Digital Ramp’ program will work
As we already mentioned, the program is a partnership with the NGO Addapters, whose objective is to bring help to people with disabilities and also caregivers. Thus, the main interest of the program is to help mothers or caregivers of children and adolescents with disabilities to develop technical skills in the digital world.
This is because it is believed that atypical motherhood creates a series of challenges for women, who often find themselves without great opportunities in life. Thus, it is important to try to help improve the lives of these mothers and professionals through the digital tools available.
According to Isabel Cavaca, president of Addapters, this is a special project, as it seeks to mitigate some of the challenges common to women with atypical motherhood in order to be able to enhance their dreams. Furthermore, the program will give priority to women in situations of social vulnerability, who are the most affected.
