Follow-Up: We're Not Done!

We arrived back in the States about a month ago, but we haven’t stopped working on our project. Here’s a brief sketch of what we’ve been up to:

• Uploaded a ton! of pictures to our photo site
• Attended an event at Congress called “Using Laptops to Fight Insurgencies”, where OLPC founder Nicholas Negroponte spoke, as well as OLPC supporter Senator John McCain.
• This past weekend, three of us went to Boston to the OLPCorps & Interns Summit to discuss and follow-up on the deployments as a whole.

What we’ve got planned:

• Writing up a larger, best-practices and evaluative document on what we did in Madagascar – what worked and what didn’t.
• Continue fundraising to support Lova Soa, as well as Madagascar School Project’s expansion school in a nearby town. (it’s being built as we speak!)
• Investigate the possibilities of getting more laptops for MSP to support increased enrollment.
• Continuing to advocate for OLPC in Madagascar.
