Descripció del projecte:

My project is a STEAM project in Accra, Ghana called ABCD- AnyBodyCanDevelop.
ABCD believes that people should be able to impact the world through creative activities in spite of their ages (4yrs up), gender, qualification etcetera. Through experiential learning activities.
My contract with an NGO just ended and I wouldn't want to end the Tech related social impact activities I've being doing so far in my neighborhood (Abelenkpe) and other regions in my country while in school.
Over four years, I've introduced people from primary to university levels intuitive development from Apps development in appinventor, 3D modelling and mixed reality with paint 3D, scratch and blockly programming to flat art design in adobe and gravit designer.
So far,ABCD have impacted 150 plus persons and would be glad to receive laptops from your institution to reach out to even more persons who don't have laptops to be able to have them used in our project space.
It would be painful to see mine students ideal or engaged in non-educational activities during our after school and vacation programs.
Please here is a documentation of our impacts so far.
ABCD Strife's on these SDG's:
Gender equality
Partnership for goals
Quality education
Sustained inequalities
Sustainable cities and communities
Industry, innovation and infrastructure

Please is it possible to use the laptops outside the project space since we also do outreach programs (door to door)We do door to door or should in case we partner with other organizations who would want our services in remote areas, we would need to go with the laptops to such places for practicals. Earlier last year, we partnered with volunteers overseas(VSO) on an digital literacy project in the upper west region of Ghana. We had to send laptops and kindles (provided by the NGO I worked with) and the students including the IT teacher over the years haven't seen or used a computer before apart from the drawn diagrams from books.</strong> ......
