[OLPC Security] Urgent needs and education in Security Digest, Vol 12, Issue 3

[Richard Karpinski]

Indeed, my argument has been that if clean water is a prime need,  
then school projects where a team of kids cooperate to make a report  
may be the most appropriate approach. A small group might set out to  
report how well diggers or well cleaners do their work. Not only  
would they then be able to make an illustrated report to help their  
own and other villagers understand the processes better, but a dozen  
or more educational results for the kids are likely to happen along  
the way.
