Prampram: The town of Prampram came alive as Digitally Done hosted the first-ever Community Digital Fair (CDF). A bold initiative aimed at introducing children and young adults in underserved communities to the vast possibilities of the digital world.
According to Ghana News Agency, a statement issued in Accra said the event, held at the Anglican Cluster of Schools, attracted students, parents, educators, tech professionals, and community leaders. It was the flagship outreach event of Digitally Done, a Ghanaian events marketing and communications company on a mission to bridge the digital divide. Through hands-on exhibitions, live tech demos, digital workshops, and creative showcases, the fair demystified digital tools and showcased how technology can solve real-life problems in health, education, sanitation, agriculture, and commerce.
Mr. Richard Adonteng Nkansah, Founder of Digitally Done, emphasized the purpose behind the event, stating, “CDF was designed to spark curiosity, not just to inform.” He noted that in these children, they saw raw excitement, proof that when knowledge is presented the right way, it becomes fuel for dreams. “Our goal is to inspire communities to believe in a future shaped by digital access and innovation,” he added.
Mr. Raphael Nartey, Municipal Chief Executive for Ningo-Prampram, who supported the initiative, said, “The Community Digital Fair is more than an event, it is a necessary intervention.” He stressed that in this digital age, no community should be left behind and applauded Digitally Done for taking this bold step to empower the youth. “This is how we build a resilient, forward-thinking generation,” he said.
Attendees engaged with tech innovators, explored educational software, interacted with robotics, and learned about online safety and digital career pathways. The fair also featured a children’s creative zone and panel discussions on how technology can be harnessed to improve life in rural Ghana.
Following the success of the maiden event, Digitally Done plans to take the Community Digital Fair to other districts in Ghana, with the vision of creating a nationwide movement toward digital literacy and innovation.
