Our approach builds the capacity of frontline workers so they can build the capacity of others. With online and offline components, our digital training curriculum combines a mobile-based courseware and practical instructional videos that guide trainers and a mobile training app that assesses the mastery level of frontline workers.Training is an essential element in the Digital Green approach since much of our work is centred on enhancing the capacities of our partners as well as the community. We also train communities on training facilitation and technical concepts.

Through this project, Digital Green aims to train 7,000 farmers as community knowledge workers (CKWs) through a web-based learning and accreditation platform. CKWs are at the frontline of the India’s National Rural Livelihoods Mission, and play a critical role in dissemianating knowledge on locally relevant agricultural best practices, health, and nutrition. The new blended training course will enable a greater number of CKWs to participate (with fewer resources)-and the CKWs will in turn train farmers in their communities on locally 850,000 farmers in their communities, helping them to boost their productivity by 20 percent and reduce the cost of cultivation by 15 percent –ultimately increasing their socioeconomic well-being in a sustainable manner.
