Voices of Africa is an interesting organisation. I got to learn about them at the iHub during the Nairobi Barcamp, 2010. Basically, they aim to bring ICT to the rural areas of Kenya, mainly by building rural internet Kiosks and supporting other organisations that have similar goals. Through this, they hope to give people in the rural areas the same opportunity as we urban folk have to indulge in ICT.
This video is a presentation done by Voices of Africa during Barcamp Nairobi 2010:
I like how she said that when people ask her what people in rural Kenya would do with the internet, she answers: “What do they do without it?”
