Change yourself and change your society or community. The slogan has become very important since Sheikh Hasina’s government has come to power. The young generation, particularly the students of all levels seem very exciting with the slogan. They want effective changes at all levels. Change usually takes place among young generation first. But the problem is that most of them are not matured enough to predict what changes would match them to introduce themselves as the proud citizens of digital Bangladesh.
What kind of change we want? Why do we need to change ourselves and our societies? So far there is no clear explanation or indication on the issue from any level. In any initiative, there must have one or more objectives. Some comments and suggestions from senior citizens may be effective for the issue. The change has become pertinent because everybody wants a corruption free country and the government wants to make it functional through digital Bangladesh.
The primary task is to establish digital society through empowering the new generation with effective technology. ICT in higher education can make Bangladesh a corruption free country. Presentation of a paper on above title at UNESCO event in Netherlands held recently proved effective for developing countries. The paper has brought prestige for the country for showing paths to other developing countries that suffer due to corruption in the same way. Situations of some countries are more disastrous than that of ours. The paper opened eyes to some participants from the worst suffering countries.
For the remote and disadvantaged communities, indigenous or traditional technology knowledge can be effective to make corruption free communities. To make it happen, technical or vocational schools can play vital role. The school can bring tremendous change in the localities. Within short span of time, the society takes entirely a different shape if properly utilized under the guidelines of a local born expert but trained and experienced at home and abroad. The K.M. Vocational School at Village-Ikrail has proved how a society or community of 12000 people changes in less than a decade without financial assistance from the government or any other source. Inspiration, dedication, motivation and good intention have made things possible. Transparency and tolerance are two very important components for the project.
The school is doing exceptionally well since its establishment and it has made the best result in entire Faridpur in the recent SSC vocational examinations from the Dhaka technical education board, though the school is not under MPO (monthly payment order) even in nine years. This project has raised the questions whether money can solve or create problems. The lessons learnt from the technical school at village-Ikrail, can be effective for the whole country to bring a fruitful change in rural Bangladesh and to make the digital Bangladesh.
