'Working for the First Wi-Fi City in Chile'
by Rosario Lizana
Salamanca (ES) is a city with a population of around 25,000. It is located in the fourth region, Coquimbo. The project is called “Salamanca: The first municipal XXI Century town”. As Atina Chile (ES) explains, this is a project that involves the municipality of Salmanca (ES) , the Pelambres Copper Foundation, D-link, and organized by the Mercator Foundation (ES). The project starts in May and, according to their site, will focus on:
Free Wi Fi for the entire Municipal town
Massive digital alphabetization for the community
Give low cost access to technologic infrastructure
Create a digital Municipality
Develop a participative digital media
Campaign 1 blog per citizen
Volunteer net from all over the country to alphabetize the community
Paula Rojo (ES), from the Mercator Foundation writes:
The 60 volunteers have understood that the children and senior citizens will look at photos while connected in the main park of Salamanca; the 300 students of digital literacy; the 200 students that are going to write on a blog, and the fact that all the authorities are working to revolutionize the city are evidence that confirm that is possible to decrease the gap that on paper cannot be removed.
