Monica’s Laptop - Computer Recycling in the Small Is Good World
April 9th, 2005
UPDATE: In an earlier post to this thread, we described how recycling laptop computers in Small Is Good World is not about the computers, it is about the people who use the computers. The computer exchange is not just a one-off event but rather the start of a persistent social and economic relationship. In the first Sohodojo Life in Africa Laptop Exchange, Christina Kirabo Jordan (Life in Africa) connects Sohodojo Jim and Timlynn with her invaluable assistant, Monica Nankoma. In the process, a laptop makes its way from Fairfield, Iowa to Kampala, Uganda via historic Oxford, England. Part One showcases the idea behind the program, and Part Two documents the first exchange during the Skoll World Forum on Social Entrepreneurship.
