Telenor Talkshawk Internet Champion is a nationwide education based initiative that aims to create, nurture and empower a new digital generation in Pakistan. The primary objective of the program is to provide learning and training to children; enabling them to tap the potential of mobile internet and be future proponents in the Digital Age.
