1. Core Team

The key OLPC stakeholders include the learning team, the hardware team, the software team, server-/connectivity-infrastructure team, the power-infrastructure team, the finance team, the operations and logistics partners, and the manufacturer, suppliers, etc.

The in-country stakeholders include government representatives, sponsors, supporters, deployers, implementers, power infrastructure specialist, suppliers, deliverers, storage provider, and recipients, e.g., school officials, teachers, children, and the community.

The core country team must include technical, pedagogical, logistical, and political (i.e., ministry of education) leads. The technical lead takes responsibility for the software, hardware, and communication and power infrastructures. The pedagogical lead takes responsibility for teacher preparation, content, and evaluation. The logistics lead takes responsibility for shipping, distribution, security, activation and repairs. The political lead is responsible for fighting the inevitable battles of will that will arise. Other team members include a liaison to OLPC, a liaison to the community, an independent evaluation team, university liaison, a diaspora liaison, and a local volunteer liaison.
