Hello,

We are working in  Jamui, a naxal-affected district in South Bihar, with a
focus on bringing e-education closer to the people to improve access to
knowledge and government services to people. The idea is democratisation on
IT, even to the far flung corners.

Not having right knowledge of government rules, processes and schemes leads
to information arbitrage and people succumbing to bribery.

Currently we are teaching school children with basic computer and internet
modules spread across a week. A pilot has been done in two schools this
week.

We are facing three basic issues: 1. Availabilty of computing machines to
children
2. Electricity 3. Long term and reliable  trainers

3rd has been solved with help of the local youth who are volunteering to
take the training. 1 and 2 keep hampering the targets.

We wanted to
1. Get your inputs on how can we make the delivery more sustainable
2. Check how we can scale up in 10 months. whom should we reach out to
