DESCRIPTION

OLPC's vision is to provide every child with a laptop to give them access to education.
The laptop, the XO, is designed to be used in tough climate conditions and remote areas. All XOs are connected with each other and to the world.
OLPC have 5 principles:
1. The kids keep their laptop and take them home
2. The focus is on early education
3. No one gets left out
4. Connection to the Internet
5. A laptop free to grow and adapt, with open source software

The goal is to bring education everywhere.

OLPC (One Laptop Per Child)'s mission is to empower the world's poorest children through education.

We aim to provide each child with a rugged, low-cost, low-power, connected laptop. To this end, we have designed hardware, content and software for collaborative, joyful, and self-empowered learning. With access to this type of tool, children are engaged in their own education, and learn, share, and create together. They become connected to each other, to the world and to a brighter future.
