Schools in informal settlements in Egypt hardly have any facilities not to mention a computer lab or availability of computers. Because they are ‘the forgotten’ and voiceless group, no news comes out of those schools although they have myriad problems and a wealth of information. The e-Kids,e-Reporters project will provide a voice to the voiceless by giving students from several schools in one informal settlement the ability to articulate their ideas and voice their dreams through an online news hub. They will report not only on school issues but also on their lives outside the school, on teacher abuse, school facilities, classroom environments, curricula problems,and others. Participating students will be between the ages of 12-17 and will receive training on the use of computers with open source software, the use of the internet as well as how to use the hub and submit readable news-style reports.
