# Linux and UN Refugee Agency
Longtime GTALUG member and open source advocate Evan Leibovitch Has just
returned from a two-year contract heading the Community Technology Access
program of the United Nations refugee agency (UNHCR).
In this presentation Evan will discuss some of the challenges encountered
in providing Internet connectivity and services to some of the world's
most impoverished populations. Special emphasis will be given to the role
of FOSS-based solutions and collaborative techniques in this unique realm
of both technical and political problem-solving. Q&A to follow.
Hi,
I'm not a GTALUG member, but I've been lurking on this list for a few weeks now. This talk is something that I would be very interested in seeing.
Unfortunately, I live in Montreal. Do you video your presentations? If this were made available online, I would definitely take the time to watch it.
Thanks,
