Internet Centre for youths in Brazil

Considerably new information is available on how to open and operate a KHouse Internet center to serve students at local schools, street kids, and youth in a local community, or indigenous kids.

Typical KHouse goals include: Keep kids off the street; Motivate street kids to return to school; Promote literacy; Support kids through difficult times; Give youth better control over their lives.

The Kidlink information portal at http://www.kidlink.org/kie/ngo/index.html now has:

• A step-by-step presentation of what it takes to set up a KHouse, with templates for pre-feasibility and feasibility studies.
• A PowerPoint presentation of our Brazilian KHouse experiences.
• A link to the infoDev eXchange Newsletter article on Kidlink's work and model.
• A 45 minute presentation (15 slides plus speaker notes) for Khouse project decision makers, recommenders, funders, pre-feasibility team members, potential second-tier partners, and others with a potential interest at the pre-planning stage.
