June 3 DTZ Set up its Green IT Classroom in Chengdu

A group of DTZ employees went to Chengdu Yuren Elementary School to set up its Green IT classroom for the underprivileged children of migrant workers. The school headmaster Meng, DTZ China CEO- Zhang Guozheng, and officials from the local education bureau made speeches respectively during the opening ceremony.

DTZ entered the China market long  ago with a mission to launch a large scale  urbanization project. Previously, DTZ conducted a survey on migrant worker children in different cities across China. The survey shows that migrant workers lead hard lives in the cities they move to,,and their children do not enjoy full citizenship rights. Most of the migrant workers’ children face challenges after the 9-year compulsory education program such as relocating to their hometowns for further studies, or dropping out of te formal education system.

 

To help the underprivileged migrant worker groups get better education rights in the city, DTZ donated a series of IT classrooms across the country. They hope with effective use of the IT classroom, students will have the opportunity to access more knowledge via digital inclusion and the power of the internet,

Moved by the large student population at Yuren school, DTZ decided to donate one more IT classroom to the school in order to meet the study requirement of students there in all 9 grades.
