Huawei has launched the Huawei DigiTruck Digital Literacy Programme at Lavington Girls Secondary School, to empower youth with digital skills.
The programme has attracted 250 registered youth, now undergoing hands-on digital training at Lavington Primary School until December 22nd 2025. Graduates will earn certificates and participate in an exciting innovation challenge, with prizes including laptops, tablets, and smartwatches.
“Digital skills are no longer a luxury; they are the new foundation of opportunity for our young people,” said Hon. Beatrice Elachi, Member of Parliament for Dagoretti North, during the official launch. “For our form four leavers, this opportunity means access to jobs, online businesses, global networks, and the confidence to compete in today’s fast-changing world.”
The Huawei DigiTruck programme is expected to empower the youth and transform the entire community by growing adoption of digital and green technologies and bring a shift from electric bikes and electric cooking solutions to mobile-based services.
The Huawei DigiTruck initiative is a solar-powered mobile classroom designed to deliver free digital skills training to underserved communities across Kenya. Equipped with laptops, high-speed internet, and modern learning tools, the DigiTruck brings digital literacy directly to youth, women, jobseekers, and entrepreneurs who may not have access to technology.
Since its launch, the DigiTruck has trained thousands of Kenyans, empowering participants with practical ICT skills that enhance employability, support innovation, and open new pathways in the digital economy. The initiative is part of Huawei’s long-term commitment to bridge the digital divide and promote inclusive, sustainable digital development in Kenyan.
