[henn-elibrary] Himanchal Education Foundation

[Charlotte Gonella]

Hi Guys,
I've been looking in to how to import laptops into Nepal for my project in Nangi.  It seems that it is not possible to clear computers at customs at KTM if they are to stay in Nepal.

Does anyone know of a way to import computers into Nepal?  Is it even possible? I have several laptops that I want to donate to the Himanchal school. 

Regards,
Charlie

  Excellent! Thanks for the info, I have been thinking about a TS solution, it's great to know it's already implemented.  I'm in contact with Chitra and Mahabir Pun (family members?).

  Thanks for your reply, keep in contact.

  Regards,
  Charlie

  Dear Charlie,

  FYI, there is a LTSP based Linux (Ubuntu) lab installed in both Nangi and Tikot (nearby village). You can meet Mr. Kishan Pun there. He can guide you through the system. 

  You can also join HeNN eLibrary Google groups (http://groups.google.com/group/henn-elibrary/) if you are interested on this.

  Regards,
  Jwalanta.

    Namaste,
    In July I'm off to Nepal to help the village of Nangi expand their rural wi-fi network. I'm taking some laptops with me to donate to the local school and am going to install Ubuntu, it's free and Edubunu is perfect of the kids in at the Himanchal School

    I would be great if the Ubuntu Nepal Community would take interest in my project and be there if I need support. I'd also love to come along to any meets you might have while I'm in Nepal.
    I'm my opinion, Ubuntu is going to provide a great opportunity to reduce the digital divide. To find out more please visit http://www.himanchal.org/, http://www.wirelessnepal.org/ and my blog at http://charlieinnangi.blogspot.com/.

    Thanks guys,
    Charlie
