Delivery of computers donated by Isdefe in Mali

Delivery of computers donated by Isdefe in Mali

On 19 January in Mali, the sixty-eight computers donated by Isdefe were distributed among the African Mission of the White Fathers in Kati, the Franciscan Sisters in Koulikoro and the Sisters of the Guardian Angel in Bamako. 

These laptops, donated through the Civil-Military Unit of the Operations Command of the Defence Staff (EMAD), will be used to equip classrooms in the three towns mentioned above with computer resources. In Mali, students do not receive training in computer science, and so outfitting these classrooms with computer equipment will improve their education, making it possible for them to apply for jobs requiring higher qualifications.

The computers left Madrid on 27 December on a Spanish Air Force aeroplane that was carrying the Minister of Defence, María Dolores de Cospedal, to the international armed forces missions stationed in Senegal and Mali.

This delivery was arranged as part of the framework of cooperation between Isdefe and EMAD, which is intended to contribute to the technical development, progress and training of local communities in operational areas.
