Tiger Watch’s Digital Education Programme, launched in August 2024, is rooted in a simple conviction: digital literacy is essential for youth living at the forest edge to access stable, skill-based livelihoods, and to become local stewards of tiger habitats. Starting with a flagship centre at Ramsinghpura, Sawai Madhopur, we have since grown to three centres across Rajasthan and added a Digital Van equipped with 115 laptops.

Our centres offer a structured 3-month basic computer course. In addition, the center also organise (on demand) a special 45-day digital learning course for girls enrolled in RS-CIT (Rajasthan State Certificate in Information Technology), complementing their formal training with hands-on support and mentoring.

Digital Education Centre, Ramsinghpura

Location: Near Ranthambhore Tiger Reserve, Sawai Madhopur District, Rajasthan

Support: BTS Strategy Alignment and Execution Private Limited

Launched: August 2024

This was our first Digital Education Centre, established at the edge of Ranthambhore Tiger Reserve. Serving students from Ramsinghpura and surrounding areas, the center offers a variety of digital learning opportunities including interactive nature-based content, basic computer skills, and subject tutorials to support school education.

The center began its journey with just 15 students. This center has educated more than 250 students and has 80 qualified students with certificate of completion.

Digital Education Centre, Anandipura

Location: Village Anandipura, Tehsil Uniara, District Tonk, Rajasthan — a relocated village from Ranthambhore Tiger Reserve

Support: Ms. Nina Rao & Saving Wild Tigers Org

Launched: May 2025

Anandipura is not just another village—it is a community of conservation heroes. Relocated from within the Ranthambhore Tiger Reserve’s core to its periphery, the people of Anandipura sacrificed their ancestral lands for the welfare of tigers and forest. Yet, despite careful planning, their new settlement still lacks reliable basic services; educational and healthcare facilities remain underdeveloped. The idea of a digital education centre here would have once seemed impossible. It was therefore both fitting and urgent that we began work in Anandipura, honoring their sacrifice by opening doors to technology and opportunity where even the essentials are scarce.

The Anandipura Centre, inaugurated on May 1 2025, was made possible by the generous support of Ms Nina Rao. With her backing, we equipped the facility with eight modern computers, and hired a dedicated instructor to guide learners through a six-module curriculum. Promotion and outreach were expertly managed by Meethalal Gurjar, our Mogya Education Programme Coordinator, who led the centre’s setup and enrolment drive—successfully registering 42 students in its first month.

Digital Education Centre, Jhiri – Sevarpali

Location: Village Jhiri, Tehsil Sarmathura, District Dholpur, Rajasthan — situated in the core area of Dholpur-Karauli Tiger Reserve

Thereafter, the centre was moved to new location at Sevarpali Village in the Critical Tiger Habitat of Dholpur-Karauli Tiger Reserve, and has enrolled about 50 students.
