Hello World provides educational resources and Internet connectivity to isolated and vulnerable communities. We do this by building solar-powered, outdoor Internet kiosks— so that underprivileged children and adults can educate themselves, communicate with others, and have a voice in the global community. ABOUT HELLO WORLD ● WHAT WE DO: Hello World provides educational resources and Internet connectivity to isolated and vulnerable communities. We do this by building solar-powered, outdoor Internet kiosks— so that underprivileged children and adults can educate themselves, communicate with others, and have a voice in the global community. ● HOW WE DO IT: Hello World mobilises communities to build Hello Hubs, solar-powered outdoor Internet kiosks, with state-of the art technology including high quality solar panels, satellite connectivity, rugged, waterproof touch-screen screens, camera and audio equipment. Hello Hubs are designed to withstand extreme outdoor weather and are energy autonomous, which means that they can bring connectivity and education to even the most isolated communities. ● WHY WE DO IT: 262 million children have NO access to education. Even if we combined the entire global budget for education it wouldn't come close to reaching every child. The traditional approach to tackling the education deficit is not working. There are 69 million too few teachers to hit current education targets, that's just targets. We need an affordable, scalable and world-class solution for ALL children, no matter where they were born. With Hello World, children can learn, and explore the world's body of knowledge, right in the center of their community. And; we're challenging the standard approach to development work - because we don't build Hello Hubs, we teach communities how to build them for themselves.
