Hi everyone, While I was a student of information design at National Institute of Design, India, I worked on brainstorming and visualizing an ecosystem to support the OLPC project in India. I am attaching a poster representing the same. The idea was to trigger advocacy among key players in Education, Technology and Outreach. It is still very crude, and I can take out more time to work on it if you guys have some feedback and inputs. I feel a lot more can be done in terms of making it interactive.
