The New Partnership for Africa’s Development (NEPAD) has received the Global Intelligent Community Visionary of the Year 2005 award for its NEPAD e-schools initiative from the Intelligent Community Forum in New York.
The 10-year NEPAD flagship e-schools initiative involves the establishment of an Africa-wide satellite network that will connect schools to the internet as well as to points within each country from which educational content will be fed to the schools on a continuous basis. It also involves ICT training of teachers and students, content and curriculum development, community involvement and participation, and establishment of ‘health points’.
