== What is OLPC Europe ==
[[Category:Europe]]
OLPC Europe is nothing but than a communication layer and a networking platform. The aim is to make commonication easier, basically between local grassroots, but also with the MIT. This can result in less work for everyone, and in a stronger focus on our common efforts and goals. Good communication has enormous potential for collaboration on projects and general information exchange, and also supports smaller grassroot organisations not to get lost in the mess :) Read more our vision here: [[OLPC_Europe/Vision]]

At the moment there are between 10 and 20 people volunteering for the basic setup of this platform. Find the people here: [[OLPC_Europe/Community#Volunteers]]
