Christian Post: Rwanda Joins Low-Cost Laptop Project
BOSTON (AP) – Rwanda is the eighth developing country to join the One Laptop Per Child initiative aimed at giving away inexpensive computers to all young students.
The nonprofit project said Wednesday it will provide Rwanda with initial test laptops and technical support at no cost within a few days.
Starting late this summer, Rwanda will begin receiving hundreds of thousands of computers at an initial cost of about $150 apiece. The government will cover the cost, with a goal of providing one laptop per child to all primary school children within five years.
