Abstract
The country of Uganda has implemented universal primary and secondary education. But still, some families cannot afford to send their children to school. When young people drop out of school, they often must resort to working illegal, unsafe, and low-paying jobs. Job prospects are even worse for disabled children. The objective of this project is to bring digital educational resources into rural villages in a low-cost manner.
YouLearn is an educational system that allows for o✏ine media streaming. Our system includes a Raspberry Pi to store the media locally and allows for streaming without WiFi being necessary. Our system supports those most in need by bringing them the health and educational resources to help their families and communities thrive.
