One Laptop per Child (OLPC) and the Bank of the South Pacific (BSP), have announced a strategic partnership to advance South Pacific education. OLPC and BSP have kicked off the partnership with a donation of 1000 revolutionary ‘XO’ laptops to Pacific children. In its first act in the new role of Lead Private Sector Partner for OLPC Oceania, BSP will donate the educational computers to children in three OLPC project schools in the Solomon Islands and Fiji. In coming months, BSP plans to provide more support for children in Papua New Guinea as it spearheads private sector support for OLPC. |
