Rural connectivity using repurposed Containers as Cyber Cafe

Computer Aid sent container of PCs, wifi routers and uninterupt power supplies
to rural connectivity project LinkNet Zambia in Macha - 70km from nearest tarred road.

The PCs are distributed to local schools, training projects, hospital and homes as
part of Africa's largest rural mesh network.

The metal box shell of the container is transformed into a cyber cafe and donated to
another, even more rural, community, Minga, 600km away as part of planned replication in 6 more rural communities within one year.
