Notes
Efforts for education and primary/secondary school skills
Lot's of initiatives
- Khan Academy - https://khanacademy.org/
- Microsoft - education (in Norway all schools use Microsoft)
Unicef leads the work on Digital Public Goods https://digitalpublicgoods.net/candidates/
What is in common is the lack of connectivity for broadband content, resulting in "offline" solutions for content:
- Kolibri offline learing http://kolibridemo.learningequality.org/en/learn/#/topics
- Global Digital Library https://digitallibrary.io/
Unicef leads the activities on connecting schools, answering the Target 4.A.1 of SDG 4. https://sustainabledevelopment.un.org/sdg4
https://projectconnect.unicef.io/
https://www.projectconnect.world/ Project connect
SDG 4, Target 4.A.1 - Proportion of schools with access to: (a) electricity; (b) the Internet for pedagogical purposes; (c) computers for pedagogical purposes; (d) adapted infrastructure and materials for students with disabilities; (e) basic drinking water; (f) single-sex basic sanitation facilities; and (g) basic handwashing facilities (as per the WASH indicator definitions)
Digital Transformation Centres (DTC)
https://academy.itu.int/main-activities/digital-transformation-centres-initiative ITU and Cicso, inviting others like Microsoft to help in transforming the business world to "digital"
Split architecture
Common for the Digital Public Goods (DPGs) and the Digital Transformation Centres (DTC) is the need for an architecture solving the demand from "low bandwidth communications".
Thus,
- a set of protocols (like AMP) for online connectivity
- high-bandwidth content to be stored locally
Who are the right partners to join to get these "set of protocols" and the architecture to become the "global standard"?
Open issues
How and where can Microsoft4Africa jump in?
- educational (DPGs)
- Parntership for connecting schools
- Partnership with Operators to bring content to schools
- Jobb skills: Digital Transformation Centres
