📋 Tender Overview
Rostelecom presented Zavodoukovsk pensioners with updated textbooks "ABCs of the Internet. Basics of Working on a Smartphone." The transfer of the textbook was timed to coincide with the opening of the fifth Senior Citizens' Communication Center (SCC) in Zavodoukovsk in the Tyumen Region. The event took place on the eve of the Day of the Elderly, which is celebrated on October 1.
This year, the social charity project "ABCs of the Internet" turned 10 years old. This is a joint program of Rostelecom and the Social Fund of Russia, which helps older people learn the basics of working with a computer and the Internet, as well as use state digital services. With the help of a special educational manual "ABCs of the Internet", which is used as a textbook for computer literacy courses for pensioners, more than 500 thousand people have already completed training.
Vladimir Barvinsky, Director of the branch in the Tyumen and Kurgan regions of PJSC Rostelecom:
"Today, digitalization affects all areas of our society. Helping the older generation, who need to master new technologies, is one of the important areas of Rostelecom's activity. Our textbooks and courses developed on them tell older people how to safely navigate the digital space. For example, the "Gosuslugi" application, available on a smartphone, allows you to make an appointment with a doctor online, pay bills from receipts without leaving home, and also learn about benefits and allowances."
Vitaly Levenkov, head of the Tyumen Region branch of the Social Fund of Russia:
"The fifth Senior Generation Communication Center in the Tyumen Region has opened its doors in Zavodoukovsk. Fans of a healthy lifestyle, creativity, and innovation are welcome here. The Center will host various classes, master classes, and lectures. The Social Fund is actively working to expand digital opportunities and is very interested in teaching pensioners computer skills. I am confident that the site will become a place for activities that suit your interests and interests."
As part of the charitable project "ABCs of the Internet", at the end of April, the acceptance of works for the 10th All-Russian competition "Thank you Internet - 2024" was launched, organized by Rostelecom and the Social Fund of Russia with the support of the Russian Association of Electronic Communications (RAEC) and ANO "Digital Economy". Participants can be Internet users over 50 years old and people with disabilities, regardless of age. The main task of the contestants is to learn how to work on a computer and on the Internet independently or in specialized courses and talk about their victories and achievements in the competition work.
