We believe this grant proposal fulfills the requirement to be multi-sectorial. We operate on many levels with multiple partnerships. First, individuals from different US colleges are bringing their experience and resources to bear. We are colleagues from Dominican College, Touro College, Harvard University and Carnegie Mellon University. Secondly, four universities from Uganda are also represented: Kampala University, Makerere University, Kisubi Brothers and University of the Mountain of the Moons.

Each Ugandan University will serve as the local disseminator of training and support, the director of installations of equipment and the monitor of their sector of the grant. Each university will work through their School of Education to train primary school teachers in the scope and purpose of this grant and to monitor the implementation of the curriculum for primary school students.

Supporting these efforts are local business and NGO partners. Silver Shadows will oversee the installation of the computers which will be the carrier of learning materials and be responsible for repairs. Amaga will provide support for teachers and offer after-school students..PLEASE add to this
