Hello,
I've been trying to float up an NGO that will run by the philosophy of "If
rural india won't go to wikipedia, take wikipedia to rural india".
Here is a mail I'd written to Wikipedia. Please go through and let me know
how you can be of help.
With my experience about polio camp(though the topic is different, polio
awareness to villager was little difficult)
, I would suggest "Just one village at a time" concept.There is already a
Google Bus going on, may be they can give an initiative with high end
system(assumbly) so that the NGO worker can continue with the base
knowledge. Im sorry if I am putting Google in to the picture but its easy
to make things happen. Good Luck for the Project.
Google Bus:
