KADO, since its inception, developed different interventions in computer literacy using ICT tools for local development. In this regard, in 2001, KADO supported establishing two village literacy centers in Murtazaabad and Hyderabad villages to impart training on software applications to villagers. These centers were later handed over to the local community to run on a cost-recovery basis.
KADO became the first indigenous organization in Northern Areas to successfully implement ICT projects. The Planning and Development Department (P&DD) thus partnered with KADO to establish 38 IT centers in all Six districts of Northern Areas.
