Descrizione del progetto

Description Frase (max. 500 characters): 

ICT TRAINING AND OUTREACH FOR PRIMARY/SECONDARY EDUCATION

Project Summary (max. 2000 characters): 

We are a public entity that provides “free public access” to information through the use of computers and the internet. We encourage the use of IAC particularly to underserved communities and schools in Ghana.
With our concurrent aim with our Korean initiators, we seek to reach out to underserved groups, such as primary and junior secondary schools who lack the practicality in computers and internet usage. Our technology service is made available to the public without charging any member, be it national or foreign. This therefore fell in line with our core mandate to forming the IACTON PROJECT to help the neglected school children in ghana.
