'Leo pamoja' in Swahili meaning 'Today together'

i was inspired by the need to reach every individual in our farming District with Information he or she would consider relevant.

Likuyani District in Western Kenya is the propsed location of our pilot project .The District mesures 100 Metres Squared and has a population of one Hundred thousand residents. We are small scale Maize farmers and most of us also keep Cows for milk and earn an extra income from Casual Labour,Chicken Rearing and Vegatable farming

The leo network of notice boards is our attempts to aggeregate Matere's example in a non Digital form that can be aesily adopted by others in the Village and the District

Problem

Why set up a community Notice Boards in each Village in the District? To ensure the rural community is able to communicate almost as effectively as those who use the Internet and other Digital resources without the baggage of going through training and purchasing expensive Electronic Equipment Make available of the right information in the right manner at the right price and at the right time even for the last farmer at the last village. To give Women and Girls an opportunity to play a leading role in the the village,Administrative Centre or District Create Space for Democracy to thrive at village Level

Marketplace

the rural village noticeboard is a new concept of local media .most media in rural Africa is Radio and T.V others are s.m.s
