Dharavi Girls Create Innovative Apps to Lift Their Quality of Live

These three young and energetic kids have gotten their hands on computers in February and now they have reached a stage where they can explore the options available to them. They have used the MIT App developer to develop their idea into an application. These are very simple mobile apps which can be easily used by all, especially those living in slums. And the app logo was put together on MS Paint. The primary school app has three simple screens, one that displays the English alphabet, one that displays the Hindi one, and another that has a Math sum.

Their inspiration to kick start project like this can be learnt from their own words— “It also works on simple phones. Our moms never went to school. We can teach them with this." Say the girls when asked about the educational app. "There are always fights over whose turn it is. This way you will know how long you have to wait, and people won't fight," says Ansari, a Class VIII student who plays football.

They even have the plans to improvise the apps as per the problems that arise.
