This was Uruguay’s first government-implemented program designed to promote digital inclusion and ensure access to education for all students in the country. As part of the program, computers and tablets are distributed to students and teachers in public schools.Ceibal has gained recognition as a successful model for integrating technology into education and has been studied by other countries seeking to implement similar initiatives.

It was the first nationwide program in Latin America to implement the One Laptop per Child initiative and continues to evolve, incorporating new technologies and educational methodologies.
