Introduction
Welcome to the OLPC Health Portal. We are an interdisciplinary group of projects working on medical-related software, hardware, and content for the XO.
Getting involved
We're always interested in hearing from, talking with, and collaborating with others with similar interests. No particular experience is required - just a passion for OLPC and the medical field and a willingness to learn. We're all constantly learning from and teaching each other.
If you are interested in what we are doing, most of our discussions take place on the Library mailing list, and the best way to join the conversation is to join the list and introduce yourself. Also check out the resources below and add yourself to the /People list.

Health Content
We are working to create a comprehensive set of health modules that are localized to each of the target countries. Over the next several months we will be working to find partners to donate content appropriate for the laptop. We will use that content as a starting point, localizing and extending it to meet the needs of the children in the target countries.
