The goal of the project is to connect communities of the Traslasierra Valley in Córdoba, Argentina, that have little or no Internet access using wireless network infrastructure. The project will complete an infrastructure deployment that began years ago with the support of the Internet Society in the departments of San Alberto and San Javier. In this consolidation stage, the project will install a solar station and deploy a mesh network of more than 30 nodes using approximately 20 LibreRouters and 20 home routers. Networks currently reach about twenty families, and this initiative will allow some sixty more families to connect to a network. The project also seeks to complete the link between Universidad Nacional de Córdoba and the towns of the Traslasierra Valley and to interconnect the community networks of the Paravachasca and Traslasierra valleys. The project will attempt to create the conditions necessary for the development of new community networks and, by providing connectivity, to guarantee access to fundamental rights such as health and education.
