This programme addresses the challenges seniors face in using technological gadgets. Topics include:

1. Understanding mobile devices

2. Using eCitizen services

3. Using Social Media and Mobile Commerce

4. Using the internet safely e.g. Identification of fake news

Mobile devices have become a necessity in our daily lives and is a tool to connect people. With Singapore’s growing ageing population, our Intergenerational Digital Literacy Programme hopes to enrich the lives of seniors and re-engage them with their family, community and society.
