On a short mission to Segou to visit an all girl community public school, where all the girls have a great point of average of 3.5 or more…and who said girls shouldn’t go to school?
The mission of One Laptop Per Child Mali (OLPC Mali) is to promote readily available educational tools that keep students and teachers interested in learning, by thus supplying every school and subsequently every student in Mali with laptop computers, and integrate technology into the country’s educational system.
Our aim is to aid children in Mali in their endeavors to learn more about computers and technology, and also to spread awareness about the advantages of technological breakthroughs such as the internet.
