Union Digital Center is a state-of-the-art information and knowledge center (telecentre) set up in the Union Council, which aims to ensure digital services at the doorstep of grassroots people. From this center, people of rural areas get life and livelihood information and necessary services in their home environment very easily.

On November 11, 2010, the Prime Minister inaugurated all the Union Digital Centers (UDCs) across the country through video conferences from the Prime Minister's Office of the United Nations Development Program (UNDP) and former New Zealand Miss Helen Clark Bhola district's Char Kukrimukuri Union. It was then named Union Information and Service Centers (UISC), later changed its name to Union Digital Center. About 40 lakh people are receiving digital services from these service centers in the month. Through the easy, rapid and low cost of UDC, public and private services have started receiving huge positive changes in the lives of the local people.

UDC's journey started in front of the 'People at the Doorsteps' program. With the establishment of UDC, it has been possible to create a free flow of information in every state of the society and the state system, where people are not going to door to door for service, but the service is reaching the doorstep of the people. Free flow of information is one of the prerequisites for empowering the public. With the establishment of a digital center in the country's 4,501 union parishad, it has facilitated access to information and services at the earliest with participation of rural people's free flow of information.
