e-Learning for the Rural Poor
Internet Not Required
How many times have you heard of a new app for the rural poor that is great – except for the fact that it requires internet access?
After years of working in impoverished rural communities, we know that internet access is the least of community worries. Our programs were specifically developed for rural areas that lack internet service while providing vital information about family health, neonatal care, disease prevention and nutrition. Our primary objective is to educate the rural woman how to feed and care for her children to reduce malnutrition and preventable deaths of children.
