This film looks at the incredible opportunities that having high speed connectivity provides. Students and academics in Madagascar, Burundi and Kenya explain how ICT opens a whole new world of learning opportunities. They also discuss how current Internet infrastructure and cost limitations are prohibiting African educational institutions from providing the best online resources for their students.

The World Bank's US$424 million Regional Communications Infrastructure Program (RCIP) aims to bring affordable high speed connectivity to as many as 25 countries in Eastern and Southern Africa. RCIP will provide terrestrial broadband network infrastructure as well as finance capacity purchase schemes for Universities in Africa.
