  • what are the costs of shipping?
  • how much money local government has for this project?
  • probably not all children can have a laptop, how are the schools going to decide which child get's a laptop an which don't; you can also choose to only use the laptop in school
  • is it possible to get in contact with local government?
  • is it possible to get insight in how much money local government is already spending on education?
  • there's probably not enough money to buy a lot of laptops, money is spend on buildings and food
  • is it smart to get NGO's involved? which NGO is already working with schools in Ghana?

Next action[edit | edit source]

  • Local people: talk to local people about the OLPC initiative @Richmon/Richard.
  • Local govenment: talk to local government of Brong Ahafo @Richmon/Richard
  • Find more information on OLPC Ghana initiative. See http://wiki.laptop.org/go/OLPC_Ghana. At the end of the page it says: "Stalled on government politics (corruption charges), despite the agreement.". Does this mean OLPC is not active anymore in Ghana?
