Dear M.,

we are xxx - Dpt. OLPC Community, specialised in kickstarting the funding of OLPC deployments with the CO2e certificates the OLPC deployments generate.

Since OLPC is supported by the UN Secretary General, wouldn't you be interested in setting up a dedicated OLPC team inside the NRC?

We've recently created a dedicated page: http://wiki.laptop.org/go/Category:Refugee_Camps#Welcome_to_the_pages_on_OLPC_link_Refugee_Camps

Looking forward exchanging viewpoints on this via skype/phone or maybe you come to Brussels every so often?

Sincerely, for the xxx OLPC Community - Brussels,

Added Category:Emergencies

With our organization AfricaCO2e.org - Objectif Brousse - Wildschools in the RDC, we are part of the consultative panel on Education in Emergencies: http://www.ineesite.org/en/global-consultation-2014

I created the category Refugee Camps before as there are dedicated funds using this term, but as "Emergencies" is larger than refugee camps and there are dedicated funds using this term, I'm creating this category too. --SvenAERTS 09:09, 22 April 2014 (UTC)

So you are using terms because there is funding available when the terms are used. Isn't that a bit disingenuous? --Quozl 22:55, 22 April 2014 (UTC)
