Nov 7, 2008 Africa: Wireless Internet in the Countryside
Two case studies in Tanzania, discussed in a new report by wireless
internet expert Ian Howard for the Association for Progressive
Communications, show two very different models for building
sustainable telecentres to meet needs in rural areas. The Family
Alliance for Development and Cooperation is an initiative by
self-taught technician Joseph Sekiku, in Karagwe, who created a
telecentre on his property with the help of small grants. The
Sengerema telecentre, some 200 km away, is the result of several
donor and community initiatives engaging a range of stakeholders.
