The TAGIBook initiative, based in Jordan, aims to introduce an affordable basic computer for every Arab citizen, in an effort to increase the level of computer literacy in the Arab region, bridge the digital divide between the Arab countries and the developed world, and build sufficient ICT skills and capacity to boost the economic standing of the region and steer it towards a knowledge-based and innovation driven society. TAGIBook initiative targets the basic Arab user whether at home, school, university, urban or rural regions.
The TAGIBook initiative, along with other social TAG projects such as community Knowledge Society (TAGKS); aims at increasing literacy levels throughout the Arab world and providing the target population with education and future opportunities based on hard work and merit.
The value of this project is that it does not resemble traditional computer projects, which are present in a number of Arab countries, the difference is that this project specifically addresses the needs of Arab communities, and merges four main components: hardware, software, connectivity, and training. These characteristics result in making this computer project unique in the world.
