[FSFLA] Fwd: [liberationtech] Mesh networking gig in Guyana

[willi uebelherr]

QueridAs amigAs,

de la lista "tecnología de liberación" recibí esta información sobre la 
interconexión de la comunidad con la telecomunicación, lo que la 
comunidad indígena necesita en el sur de Guyana Británica. Distancias 
10-30 km, conexión "backbone" 100 km y más.

Querido Quiliro, ¿cuán lejos está su proyecto de transporte de datos con 
luz?

muchos saludos, willi

I work with Digital Democracy[1], a non-profit doing offline
peer-to-peer mapping for environmental monitoring in parts of South
America.

Dd is looking for someone who is interested in traveling to the
savannahs of southern Guyana and set up long-distance wifi connections
for indigenous communities. They're looking for volunteers for a trip in
February/March. You can find the details here:

Dd can potentially pay flights and costs as well.

If you're interested, ping Gregor McLennan
