Tomorrow RTÉ.ie presents a special series about technology in the developing world.
Joe Zefran, RTÉ.ie News Editor and I have put the cross-media series together.
Joe traveled to India and I went to Rwanda and Kenya where we reported and shot our own video for three reports on three programmes, including the Irish charity Camara, which are using three different approaches to reach the same goal: educating the world’s youngest citizens.
The series looks at how children in the slums of New Delhi are linked to the larger world, how one experiment wants to make sure every child in the world has their own laptop, and how an Irish charity is changing the lives of people in Kenya.
There will be full-length text features and web-exclusive interviews on RTÉ.ie/globalclassroom.
Plus, for the first time at RTÉ, RTÉ.ie will produce a three-part television series that will air on the Six One News and News on Two.
My reports will air on Monday and Wednesday and they focus on Camara and One Laptop Per Child.
This has been a very exciting project and I look forward to doing more like it in the future.
