[UNICEF ZIMBABWE @UNICEFZIMBABWE]

In order to connect all children in🇿🇼 to the internet we need to first map all 10,147 schools in real-time in order to establish infrastructure and connectivity needs- @JaimeArchM explains Mapping, a Pillar of @gigaglobal's work @ the "Re-Imagine Education" workshop in Nyanga

[Giga @Gigaglobal]

📢 Giga's partner @UNICEF, seeks to find companies that can help us map and connect the hardest-to-reach schools in the world.

99% of schools in Kyrgyzstan now have Internet access but connecting the rest is a big challenge, especially in remote, mountainous areas.

Have you ever wondered what is the link between connectivity and economic advantage? @Gigaconnect and @Mapbox just developed an #opensource tool to analyze how connectivity strengthens economic opportunities. Take a look!

[Giga @Gigaglobal]

Our friends @Mapbox have helped us create a new tool to visualise the link between connectivity and economic advantage.

And we've started with Kazakhstan 🇰🇿
