THIS MONTH:

Topic: SE Asia using open source software to design Public Health Networks

Speaker: Dr. Michael Linnan

Presentation:

A project in SE Asia using open source software to design Public Health 
Networks. We currently have one up and running in Hanoi Vietnam that 
runs well with locals as admins. We are looking for Linux talent, 
however most would be volunteer.

The Hanoi piece is mostly complete. There is also a separate piece 
dealing with developing some games for teaching children about safety. 
We are looking for volunteers for that activity.

In terms of the IT activity, we want to start building the core of it in 
Bangkok at the TASC Foundation office, but in such a way that it will 
end up being a somewhat distributed network encompassing all of the 
country offices as they develop. Currently there are offices (or about 
to be) in Hanoi and Bangkok. Likely to come next is Bangladesh and then 
Indonesia.

Bio:

Dr. Linnan is the Hanoi project director for this effort.
