Data Response

Africa is in need of people trained in IT (e.g. programmers). This is the reason any computer-aid programs have failed, as they do not have people with the required experience to maintain the technology. A primary skill that is lacking is programming. Many computers these days have programs that were created by solo programmers, downloaded for free. It is this system that allows the computer to “evolve” as it is relatively easy to find a program for your specific needs via the internet. It is also lacking a sufficient amount of people trained in the maintaince of hardware, which would be needed to have a working internet infrastructure.
