Back to Brazil and a new platform
I have arrived back in Manaus. Renato and I are making plans to go out to Autazes for several weeks. The children have been working with the computers and learning typing and word processing. I am excited to get a chance to hear directly from them about what they are learning. We will be posting some stories from them while were are out there.
While I was in Europe, I started researching the use of mobile phones for education, jobs and remote work, and business development. We will be working with the communities in Brazil as well as the refugees in Manaus to see how we can use the technology they already have.
New community and subscription options
I have moved my blog to substack.com. This enables me to offer a subscription option to help us create some ongoing monthly support. Purchasing a subscription will help fund our ongoing work and research in Brazil. We plan to be more engaged with our followers and supporters going forward. Current monthly supporters are automatically given access to the paid content.
