Sportz Village Foundation in partnership with DXC Technology (NYSE: DXC) is delighted to present the second edition of ‘Race Around India’, with a major focus on the states in Southern India. This program was introduced in 2020, and this year, it covers 15 cities including Mysore, Mangalore, Coimbatore, Kochi, Kollam, Thiruvananthapuram, and Kanyakumari.
Race Around India is a unique offline gamified module created by Sportz Village Foundation and sponsored by DXC Technology. It aims at helping children who do not have access to internet connectivity, in learning and staying physically active while they are at home during the current times.
This program takes children through a simulated race across the country/region, where they compete as virtual teams to complete specified tasks in order to win. The program not only gets children to be physically active, but also helps in improving their knowledge about the country. Learning via this program is completely self-directed and the information is available in several local languages.
The offline model also ensures that children irrespective of their social segment, age or gender be a part of the program. The information available on the program can be accessed in multiple local languages.
