Tanzania Library Project

Andy will be presenting work he and his wife did with Global Outreach Tanzania, a Non-Government Organization (NGO) with the vision of computer literacy enhancing educational operational opportunities for Africa’s most needy.

The vision of Global Outreach is to introduce computer literacy into the curriculum of secondary schools in central Tanzania, and to then use that capability and knowledge to improve the quality of education in all subjects. Our focus is on improving educational opportunities in remote locations which accommodate the poorest of the country's student population, often in villages that lack many 21st century basics.
