The Africa-EU Partnership - '..if you could shrink a school so that it fits into a lunchbox.'

'..if you could shrink a school so that it fits into a lunchbox.'

<blockquote>'One of the Millennium Development Goals set by the United Nations was to bring primary school education to all the world’s children. That led to computers being introduced to classrooms in Rwandan schools under the One Laptop per Child programme (OLPC).

Sven Aerts of OLPC explained: “People in the open source computer software community approached [the then UN Secretary General] Kofi Annan and said imagine if you could shrink a school so that it fits into a lunchbox. And there’s a small solar panel that powers it, because these computers are very energy efficient.” '
