Knowledge LINK
Unprecedented gain in advancing human development in recent decades came largely
from technological breakthroughs, for new technologies including Information and
Communication technology (ICT) have led to healthier lives, greater social
freedom, increased knowledge and more productive livelihoods.
More than 60 percent of India’s population lives in rural areas. Opportunities
for rural people to participate in socio - economic growth are severely
curtailed because of lack of access to information, and more importantly access
to timely information. K-Link is dedicated to bringing the benefits of new
technologies to common man by simplifying it, with a special focus on meeting
the challenges of rural development. K-Link focuses on current and emerging
technologies that respond to the needs of rural curtailed masses.
Every community needs the capacity to understand and adapt technologies for
local need. The initiatives of K-Link Foundation have not only created an
information environment amongst targeted communities, but also played a vital
role in forging and shaping new public policies to lead the revolution in
information and Communication technology in the direction of development across
India.
Since 2001 with different institutional format, K-Link Foundation came out with
Innovative and grass root user friendly ICT interventions to support the
marginal and curtailed community.
