The project 'Distance Learning in the Amazon Forest Program' connects very remote communities through the transmission of live classes through internet and satellite technology. The program offerns live, interactive, real-time or on-demand audio, video or data connections between students and teachers of remote villages in the rainforest. Children that would have to travel far, or could not at all attend secondary school, thus have a chance to access quality education and share the same knowledge base as children in urban areas, connecting them culturally with the whole nation.
