In 2015 in order to enhance the Company involvement in meeting paramount social challenges the society is facing, all the most important social projects undertaken by the Company within the scope of its development strategy were united under the umbrella of the federal scale integrated program for digital equality, elaborated with assistance of market experts.The program united Rostelecom key projects that successfully passed trials in some Russian regions, in order to be further deployed stage by stage. These projects are: The Internet Alphabet, IT-ROST, ROST, Distant Learning for Children with Disabilities, Computers for Orphanages, Learn Internet and Manage It, a collaboration project in association with Impact Hub Moscow. The Program for Digital Equality became a logical successor of the Federal Program for Eliminating Digital Inequality. Since 2014 Rostelecom had been the operator of the latter program, and managed to enable creation of a chain of successive social impacts, from quick wins, like teaching Internet skills, to global results, like changing life quality of all groups of the Program beneficiaries in all regions of the Program implementation, including socially vulnerable groups.Essentially, the Program for Digital Equality is Rostelecom’ consistent contribution in the implementation of social changes for the public good.
