HP Inc. said it has launched education partnerships, blended learning programs, and donations around the world to respond to COVID-19 including India.
The programs underscore it’s corporate goal to enable learning outcomes for 100 million people by 2025 through global educational curricula, equipment donations and on-demand learning tech, company statement said.
These include Print, Play & Learn, a free HP global resource, as well as initiatives launched in India and China to deliver a combination of educational, engaging and fun online and printed content which support remote teaching and learning – a new reality for millions of teachers, parents and students during this time.
“A student’s right to education should not be contingent on where they live or their family’s income. We must find creative new ways for teachers and students to connect from a distance – because while this pandemic is creating hardship for so many around the world right now, we cannot afford to let it hold back the generation that will shape our future,” said Enrique Lores, HP President and CEO.
