Welcome.
I work for a development organization named Pathfinder International (www.pathfind.org).
Our work focuses predominantly on Family Planning & Reproductive Health.
We have operations in 20+ countries in Africa, Asia & Latin America.
We do a lot of work in Nigeria, one of the first laptop recipients to be.
I'm interested in exploring how my organization might either aid the OLPC project, or work within the context of OLPC deployments to further our mission.
I’m not sure what shape that participation might take, but I’m interested in exploring things like:
- creating content or applications for the laptops, for either students or teachers
- facilitating distribution of the laptops (e.g. via our education project in Nigeria (COMPASS), which works with the large numbers of school districts)
- using them for data collection, monitoring & evaluation (e.g. creating software to allow recipients to collect and send information that might be useful either to projects we’re working on in countries or to the greater good)
Please feel free to leave me a message on my talk page, or email me at [1].
Have a nice day:)!
