Our discussion of this teaching project will review issues that shaped the project’s development, outline resources required for implementation, and summarize the workshop’s curriculum. This project is part of a collaboration between a faculty and student team at the University of Toronto and two groups in India, the Khangchendzonga Conservation Committee (KCC) and the Kasturba Gandhi Balika Vidyalaya (KGBV) school for girls. The KCCis a small non-governmental organization based in Yuksom, a rural village that is the main access point to a UNESCO World Heritage Site in the Indian Himalaya, along the Nepal border. Located not far from Yuksom, about 30 minutes by car along winding mountain switchbacks or an hour’s walk along a lushly forested footpath, the KGBV is a residential school for girls. Our Canadianled workshop for KGBV girls in 2019 aimed to support the KCC’s longstanding work to build capacity across the region in natural resource management and conservation, and their promotion of village-level economic growth through culturally and environmentally responsible modes of tourism.  \nOur interest in supporting the KCC’s work with girls through developing this workshop was stimulated in part during a trip to Sikkim in 2018, when we noticed bright blue conduit for fiber optic cables emerging from the dirt al","cbCaihg1avTOTLvG","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaihg1avTOTLvG","pdf",2453862,21,"English","en",105,"# Abstract\n# Introduction\n# Working for Sustainability in the Himalayan Foothills","[{\"question\":\"What is the main focus of the two-week workshop discussed in the report?\",\"answer\":\"The report focuses on a two-week workshop combining web coding with environmental sustainability for girls in Northeastern India.\"},{\"question\":\"Which organizations and partners are involved in the project?\",\"answer\":\"The project is a collaboration between a University of Toronto faculty and student team and two Indian groups: the Khangchendzonga Conservation Committee (KCC) and the Kasturba Gandhi Balika Vidyalaya (KGBV) girls’ school.\"},{\"question\":\"Why does the report emphasize teaching in “edge of the Internet” offline environments?\",\"answer\":\"It highlights that relatively few coding-teaching efforts have handled offline constraints, and that moving skills into such regions before widespread internet access may reduce adverse impacts on equity and justice.\"}]","At the Edge of the Internet - Teaching Coding and Sustainability to Himalayan Girls | PDF",1792086434,53,{"code":4,"msg":82,"data":83},"ok",{"site_id":75,"language":74,"slug":84,"title":65,"keywords":85,"description":66,"schema_data":86,"social_meta":140,"head_meta":142,"extra_data":144,"updated_unix":145},"at-the-edge-of-the-internet-teaching-coding-and-sustainability-to-himalayan-girls","",{"@graph":87,"@context":139},[88,102,122],{"@type":89,"itemListElement":90},"BreadcrumbList",[91,95,97,100],{"item":92,"name":93,"@type":94,"position":8},"https://docshare.wps.com","Home","ListItem",{"item":96,"name":9,"@type":94,"position":14},"https://docshare.wps.com/document/",{"item":98,"name":40,"@type":94,"position":99},"https://docshare.wps.com/document/research-report/",3,{"item":101,"name":65,"@type":94,"position":19},"https://docshare.wps.com/document/at-the-edge-of-the-internet-teaching-coding-and-sustainability-to-himalayan-girls/598177/",{"url":101,"name":65,"@type":103,"image":104,"author":109,"headline":65,"publisher":111,"fileFormat":114,"inLanguage":74,"description":66,"dateModified":115,"datePublished":116,"encodingFormat":114,"isAccessibleForFree":117,"interactionStatistic":118},"DigitalDocument",{"url":105,"@type":106,"width":107,"height":108},"https://docshare.wps.com/thumbnails/at-the-edge-of-the-internet-teaching-coding-and-sustainability-to-himalayan-girls/598177.png","ImageObject",300,407,{"name":63,"@type":110},"Person",{"url":92,"name":112,"@type":113},"DocShare","Organization","application/pdf","2026-10-30","2026-10-15",true,{"@type":119,"interactionType":120,"userInteractionCount":19},"InteractionCounter",{"@type":121},"ViewAction",{"@type":123,"mainEntity":124},"FAQPage",[125,131,135],{"name":126,"@type":127,"acceptedAnswer":128},"What is the main focus of the two-week workshop discussed in the report?","Question",{"text":129,"@type":130},"The report focuses on a two-week workshop combining web coding with environmental sustainability for girls in Northeastern India.","Answer",{"name":132,"@type":127,"acceptedAnswer":133},"Which organizations and partners are involved in the project?",{"text":134,"@type":130},"The project is a collaboration between a University of Toronto faculty and student team and two Indian groups: the Khangchendzonga Conservation Committee (KCC) and the Kasturba Gandhi Balika Vidyalaya (KGBV) girls’ school.",{"name":136,"@type":127,"acceptedAnswer":137},"Why does the report emphasize teaching in “edge of the Internet” offline environments?",{"text":138,"@type":130},"It highlights that relatively few coding-teaching efforts have handled offline constraints, and that moving skills into such regions before widespread internet access may reduce adverse impacts on equity and justice.","https://schema.org",{"og:url":101,"og:type":141,"og:title":65,"og:site_name":112,"og:description":66},"article",{"robots":143,"canonical":101},"index,follow",{"doc_id":61,"site_id":75},1792881438]
