More Information About this Project

Project Needs and Beneficiaries

As the world’s economy becomes increasingly interconnected, it is essential that opportunities to join the global economy exist in developing countries. To address this need, DDD was created to capitalize on the business opportunity from companies searching for lower-cost IT outsourcing solutions. DDD is at the nexus of several development themes including: technology transfer, SME development, economic alternatives to human trafficking, self sustainability and disabled individuals’ equality.

Activities

Self-sustainability is fundamental to DDD’s mission. By selling "digitization" services we generate income like a handicraft NGO sells its goods. We reinvest all of our profit into our employees’ development through college education, health care, continued training, and English lessons.
