We can target some 'poor' regions with no access to computers (as such) and no goo access to education, and set up 'education centers'. Here's a little mock-up of what I am talking about; <a href="http://pi.worldpossible.org/" target="_blank">http://pi.worldpossible.org/</a></div><div>We will be needing some more gears; screens, keyboards n mice, networking stuffs n ol. That can both help to have a little understand of the Pi platform and also move towards a 'social responsibility' contribution.</div><div><br></div><div><br></div><div>Regards,</div><div>Irshaad <br><br><div><hr id="stopSpelling">Date: Sun, 6 Jul 2014 13:02:29 +0400<br>From: ish@hacklog.in<br>To: discuss@discuss.lugm.org<br>Subject: [lugm.org] Raspberry Pi Party with JCI<br><br><div dir="ltr"><div class="ecxgmail_default" style="font-family:verdana,sans-serif;color:rgb(11,83,148);">Hello folks,</div><div class="ecxgmail_default" style="font-family:verdana,sans-serif;color:rgb(11,83,148);"><br></div><div class="ecxgmail_default" style="font-family:verdana,sans-serif;color:rgb(11,83,148);">
As discussed during previous meetups we have a collaborative project with JCI City Plus. The latter has received a donation of 30 Raspberry Pis & need help with Linux installs.<br><br>I visited them yesterday along with Jagveer Loky, Yog Ujhoodha and Nitin Bachraz. A first reconnaissance was made & we deployed Raspbian on 3 Pis. They actually received a complete Pi kit with the RPi, 8Gb SD-Card loaded with NOOBS and a Pi casing.<br>
<br>Yog & Jagveer have volunteered to produce educational content using GCompris. Nayar should be joining them if I'm not wrong (can you please confirm Nayar?).<br><br>We have another meeting in 2 weeks time where we shall discuss contents of an MoU between JCI & LUGM regarding the project and various stakeholders. Who would like to join in for the meeting? Let me know & we shall plan it accordingly.<br>
<br>Anybody else who's got ideas useful for this project, please shoot.</div><div class="ecxgmail_default" style="font-family:verdana,sans-serif;color:rgb(11,83,148);"><br></div><div class="ecxgmail_default" style="font-family:verdana,sans-serif;color:rgb(11,83,148);">
