“For us in schools in rural areas, one of the biggest difficulties we have is the lack of energy. A system like this will allow us, for example, to use the secretariat's computers (with internet access) and carry out all the school administration documentation”, highlighted Raimundo Silva, manager of the Kanata T. Ykua indigenous school.
