OLPC makes a sustainable solar powered rugged laptopschool and makes sure it remains in the open source and open hardware community. The name of the laptopschool is called XO. The XO is used in society transformational projects, using education and the openmindness, energy of kids/youth and their capability to bring about change and innovation into families as they bring the laptops home and thus bring a whole family and society to the next level.
The aim of this educational project, is on one hand to bring Universal Primary Education by 2015 as - anno year 2000 initiated - '''United Nations [[Millennium Development Goal]] nr.2'''. On the other hand, OLPC's mission is to manage the open hard and software project, to bring forward the best possible laptop combination for education: the [[XO-XServer combination]]. For this and above approach, - and also a lot of lobbying by the right persons on the right places and time - '''the United Nations is a Partner in this Open Community project'''! It is the largest educational project undertaken by Humanity ever, and deemed by many as one of the most inspiring projects out there. 2008, saw the first countries with a 100% roll out to all of their kids aged 5 till 15: Peru, Uruguay.

OLPC has opened a legal OLPC entity in Europe; Belgium host the European Headquarters of OLPC in the magnificent surroundings at the befriended SWIFT company near Brussels.

Europe is a very multi-cultural society with a very diverse diaspora from and to just about all countries in the world. We hope that this diaspora will work their way to these pages and that societies will benefit from these citizens with one leg in Europe and another in their diaspora countries (of origin) to develop leadership for [[OLPC]], [[Agenda 21]], the [[MDG's]] and accelerate bringing the level that our planet can be a nice place for all humans to new and inspiring heights for generations to come.

Intro to the project

Maybe a central question for Europeans on the topic of OLPC: " Is there room for an open source AND open hardware laptop annex tablet in the EU Educational Landscape? While some EU kids may have an iPad class, may all be missing the boat?"

OLPC makes a sustainable solar powered rugged laptopschool and makes sure it remains in the open source and open hardware community. The name of the laptopschool is called XO. The XO is used in society transformational projects, using education and the openmindness, energy of kids/youth and their capability to bring about change and innovation into families as they bring the laptops home and thus bring a whole family and society to the next level. Using mass production and miniaturisation, the cost of the laptopschools has been brought down to 25 euro/child.year, including portable flexible PV panel. The XO can hold about 500 eBooks and the teachers are supported by virtual assistants that accompany many of the learning programs. All kids in Uruguay have an XO. All kids in Peru have an XO. All kids in Rwanda have an XO. In nearly every region in the world, supporters have brought XO's for demonstration purposes.

Part of the financing can be born by CO2e certificates under the EU Emission Trading System to combat Climate Change and hence would make a great demo project on this topic and indicate the solidarity on the topic between the continent and it's OCT's.


OLPC is also used to support United Nations Millennium Development Goal nr.2 - Universal Primary Education by 2015. The best possible laptop combination for education is the XO-XServer combination. It is the largest educational project undertaken by Humanity ever, and deemed by many as one of the most inspiring projects out there. 2008, saw the first countries with a 100% roll out to all of their kids aged 5 till 15: Peru, Uruguay. Several Island States have a 100% deployment too; Rwanda and Australia are following at fast pace too.

OlpcBelgiumOlpCafe20090409a.JPG

Every XO can load over 100 ebooks on its memory and has a choice of over 86.000 eBooks available, as well as many (educational) games, all education disciplines covered, etc. etc.. things are moving fast indeed.

Europe is a very multi-cultural society with a very diverse diaspora from and to just about all countries in the world. We hope that this diaspora will work their way to these pages and that societies will benefit from these citizens with one leg in Europe and another in their diaspora countries (of origin) to develop leadership for OLPC, Agenda 21, the MDG's and accelerate bringing the level that our planet can be a nice place for all humans to new and inspiring heights for generations to come.

Community & Strategy

I think we best align with how we as Europeans are organized to quicker get to success here in Europe - the innovation Union.

  1. Europe of the Nations
  2. Europe of the Regions
  3. Private Sector
  4. Public Sector
  5. NGO's / Not for Profit Sector
  6. Political landscape
  7. Relations with Other Countries -
    1. Uruguay - Europe: [Uruguay Président José MUJICA]: "In the sphere of international relations, he hopes to further negotiations and agreements between the European Union and the regional trade bloc Mercosur, of which Uruguay is a founding member.[18] "

Get involved

The "Une Ecole Par Enfant/One Laptop Per Child - Initiative" has so many doors of entrance, one for just about every player in society:

  1. the ICT landscape obviously. You are an ICT teacher and you're looking for a great multi-disciplinary or specialized project your students can link-up with and put develop their ict skills: olpc community is there for you. You were an ICT student and you didn't contribute in Humanities'largest Educational Endeavour ever? That awkward feeling when your kid asks you that question and you realize you missed a boat or at least you're on the wrong ship?
  2. the Education landscape, pedagogy university departments obviously, but also cabinets of education interested to link up their educational landscape with the open source and open hardware community to give some resistance against the Microsoft's, Acer's, Toshiba's, Apple's, eBoard manufacturers, telecom operators obviously all eager to make money and hook up our students, parents and kids as nice compliant consumers ;) OLPC and the OLPC Community, the XO-XS laptop tablet: Welcome linking up in the largest educational effort ever undertaken
    1. Really, stop drafting these courses in your own little corner, join other teams in your discipline making the best ever eBook on your discipline ... imagine you get hired to personalise the version for a specific language/region or explain how to make such books and how they become interactive books in the OLPC XO-XS laptop/tablets ! When was the last time you checked if your Ministry of Education or the EU Directorate of Education has funds and calls for proposals to pay you for doing all this ?
  3. but also the industry interested in generating CO2e certificates via OLPC deployments, or for their CSR programs = Corporate Social Responsibility
  4. the health sector will be very interested in the OLPC link Health-teams with wonderful projects s.a. telemedicine, usb plug in eStetoscopes, eMicroscopes, eEchography for pregnant women
  5. economy students: econometry, by how much the gdp or wealth and happiness rises by implementing an OLPC deployment in a region
  6. Statistics: Dear statisticians, how does the OLPC deployments help in collecting data. Relevant, real time data that is comparable whatever the country.
  7. marketing: do you love the OLPC advertisements as much as we do ? Check out youtube or the OLPC logo creation team
  8. volunteers / retired but still loads to share: join bed-time story reading grandma's, enlist yourself so kids/OLPC community members can contact you when they are in need of help. The OLPC kids and families can television's you real time over their internet, using their OLPC XO-XS laptop-tabled that is equipped with wifi video cam + speakers and a microphone - what's not going as planned and you can what's going on, how to repair, how it will work, ...
  9. ...

In short, the spirit of OLPC includes one core thing: the community. This includes everyone, from the children and their families to their teachers and everyone who is collaborating towards the success of the project. Make sure you'll be able to tell your kids, grand-kids you were part of this great initiative. The largest, most comprehensive educational effort ever undertaken by Humanity, and you were part of it! Congratulations! Create a login, start writing who you are, what you can do, what you want to do, what you don't want to do anymore, how much time you have available, etc. Soon others will link up to you and start interacting. You'll be coached, trained as you are doing. Hey and since the OLPC community is worldwide, the OLPC help and help channels are there 24h/24h - 365 days a year !

How to get in touch
* #olpc-europe (and #olpc-groups) on freenode.net
* #olpc on freenode.net (as there is so little english speaking olpc community in Europe -collapsed- and even world wide, it's better to link here) --SvenAERTS 22:59, 30 April 2013 (UTC)
* Grassroots mailing list.
How to get involved
There are various forms of participation, including:

I proposed people to have a look at the update Europe page and invited them for a Skype svenaerts call. The result: the next day not a single person has contacted me, nor on my Skype profile, nor here in the discussion pages. --SvenAERTS 19:19, 22 January 2014 (UTC)

Yes, I expected that. There are very few users of this Wiki now, as judged by server logs and RecentChanges. Most active users are technical. Some of the Wiki accounts may not have e-mail addresses. All you have done is made a lot of edits, and perhaps I was the only person to notice. It goes to show that you should use alternate methods to reestablish community, and if the Wiki does not win this competition, so be it. --Quozl 06:27, 24 January 2014 (UTC)
  1. Contacting the EU Ministers of Education/Responsible parties for Education in every EU Member State
  2. Can we give a lecture/workshop at your organization: " Is there room for an open source AND open hardware laptop annex tablet in the EU Educational Landscape?

While some EU kids may have an iPad class, may all be missing the boat?"

  1. Build a community. Identify and email the educational landscape players, ICT teachers clubs, ...
  2. Set-up a lab in every EU Region: Ask the Ministry of education where would be the best place to show-case and set-up such a lab, in collaboration with whom? Where could we best store / unload a 20 foot container holding 3.000 XO's ?
  3. Coordinate follow-up of emails
  4. FAQ and Most frequent mis-conceptions
    1. How much does the XO-XS laptop-tablet cost?
    2. A deployment can be financed by the CO2e certificates produced by a deployment of XO's and the additional revenues generated in the form of taxes: an ict literate and equipped society can add value to society more readily which translates in a higher demand of e.g. more complex mobile phone subscriptions,
    3. Do your society - parents a favor: how much money is wasted by the time your kid reaches 12 on all kind of ict crap? Starting with the mickey-mouse computer (25 €) and other electronic gadgets for toddlers (15 €), crawlers and kindergarden, then their first made-to-fail kids mobile phone that lasts 2 months (65 €), and a tablet that promised capability of surfing the web and that appeared to be a total lie (99 €)? Costs: 25 €+15 €+65 €+100 € = 205 €. The XO = only 160 €, made to be repaired and no strings attached.
## The XO-XS laptop-x-tablet is the best for kids learning laptop-x-tablet out there and you want it for your kids.  You don't want to give a kid a 750 € iPad.
