We are frequently on the look out for innovative partnerships which will help bring frontier technological advances to support of knowledge empowerment of the rural poor. We also partner with agricultural education and research institutes to support their efforts to build technology-mediated open learning systems. These efforts will lead to IPG (International Public Goods) like values in terms of new technology, standards, frameworks and protocols that will have global applicability.  A number of projects have emerged from these partnerships.
