1 Problem : the lack of access to internet and other digital services in rural areas, this stop students and teacher getting more knowledge, farmers lack contact, and stop the development of these communities. 

2 solution : a low cost computer powered by raspberryPi, and equipped to be resistant to rain and dust. This computer connected with internet and also other services such as pre recorded videos lessons about science, health and other real life issue, are to be deployed on strategic location on rural areas. 

3 changes: this would allow students to access information and learn things that are not available on the community, teacher can get new materiais and lessons. This would also provide access to internet for anyone and videos lessons about hearth, water safety and other real life issues. 

Many communities have little or not access to internet and other digital services, in fact only half of the world have access to internet and this also true to access to computers in general. 
in Africa and Asian communities  only one in four people have access to the computers or internet. This create a barrier for students to get knowledge and even do simple assignments, teacher to access current realigned information, farmers to know how better produce and export their product, and with many diseases information  about prevention are crucial. 

our solution is a low cost raspberryPi power computer which is resistant to dust and water and equipped with internet and videos about water filtration, health care advices, lessons for students , information for farmers. These computers are to be deployed in strategic location on rural communities and allow people to access these resources. 

our solution would serve the rural communities in many ways. For students on these communities they would have internet access, pre recorded videos on STEM, a way of seeing opportunities for further education. For teachers they can have reliable and updated information and resources. For farmer provide videos with advices on they products, resources on how to export. For hearth care and people general provide information about water safely, sanitation. All these will provided by pre recorded videos and also with the access of internet. 

This challenges aim to provide help and opportunity for rural communities to have access to the internet and new resources, our solution materialise this aim in a real product which already being used on some committed in Africa and those aimed has been achieved. 

our product has been designed and tested in two different communities in Africa (Angola), real feedback was collected the design was improved and currently more communities in Africa and Asian may be benefited by the product.

our solution has addressed the need of providing internet and computer/ digital services by design a device that is resistant to water and use damage, also its secure to be placed on most rural places around the world with little security needed. the design is build to the cost eficiente and easy mass manufactured.
