Digital literacy programmes are crucial for enhancing digital skills among adult women in urban slums, where access to technology and information can be limited. Qualitative data collection methods were employed to gather insights from participants and stakeholders involved in digital literacy initiatives.

Programmes should incorporate more device provision strategies and seek community partnerships to enhance long-term sustainability and effectiveness.
