The program just received funding from the European Union Humanitarian Aid fund for a pilot study for 21 Internet in the Box devices to disseminate informational and educational materials in camps for internally displaced people affected by the conflict and humanitarian crisis here. The organization did not identify a partner up-front to implement the activity with in case of receiving the funding so now I am doing this with urgency. The timeline is extremely tight (all devices must be in camps by November 30, the last day to spend the money) so I am looking for a partner who has experience with IIAB. We are basically looking for the most simple and easy to use features, just putting text, audio and video documents with informational materials on the server, and an ability for someone to swop/update content with a SSD card or other item that can be exchanged.</div><div><br></div><div>We will use camps as pilot sites that have schools so we can partner with the education teams there.<br></div><div><br></div><div>Unfortunately we don't have an IT staff on our team.
We have a small budget of several thousand US dollars for this project
to purchase the devices, batteries/solar panels, shipping and also some
development/set-up cost. <br></div><div><br></div><div>I am writing you as I hope you might have a suggestion regarding whom we could partner with? I would be grateful for any answer and available to discuss more any time. <br></div><div><br></div><div>Many thanks! <br></div><div><div><div dir="ltr" class="m_6625925140546362588m_-2183738398086335273m_5715013408099821393m_5138199473041379218m_-9137056777373780345m_6279126930335640471m_6049528222816830724m_1003982836293011940m_568998042432901339gmail_signature" data-smartmail="gmail_signature"><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div><br></div><div>Vera<br></div><div>--<br></div><div>Vera Wedekind</div><div>Interim TWB Nigeria program manager (consultant)</div><div><a href="mailto:vera@translatorswithoutborders.org" target="_blank">vera@translatorswithoutborders.org</a><br></div><div>phone/whatsapp: +234 81 36 85 12 09</div><div>skype: verawedekind<br></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div>
