About DMP
The Dedicated Mentoring Program (DMP) is C4GT’s flagship three-month open-source program that connects selected students and early-career professionals with mission-critical Tech-for-Good projects from Digital Public Goods (DPGs) and Tech-for-Good builder organizations. Contributors receive dedicated mentorship, structured guidance, and regular evaluations throughout the program.
Upon successful completion, contributors earn a stipend of ₹1 lakh while gaining hands-on experience building technology that creates real-world social impact.
