Modern Asclepieions and OLPC ...

Recently Professor Nicholas Negreponte was received on March 16 2007 by the Greek Prime Minister Costas Karamanlis and they discussed the Greek digital strategy and the participation of Greece to the One Laptop Per Child or OLPC programme) we have learnt about the Greek activities related to the programme.

We are of the opinion that the OLPC programme can be coupled with the Modern Asclepieions initiative and boost the participation of the less developed countries (LDC) in the context of the WSIS initiative of ITU and WHO.

Our past efforts towards the above mentioned organisations and the Commission of the European Union had very little or no impact perhaps due to the Greek Government’s reluctance to endorse the concepts of MAs and to commit itself towards the proposed pilot application in the Athens area, the ‘Asclepieion Park of Athens’.

We will contact the Greek Information Society and we hope to be able to report something concrete in the near future.
