Addresses This Problem.
Latio, R.

Abstract
| The
paper examines the problem of inaccessibility
to education by the vast majority in East Africa,
the factors that contribute to education problems
and how the digital divide further helps isolate
people in the rural communities of the region.

The
author proposes satellite technology as the solution
to the digital divide and offers reasons to support
this proposition. Technology use in Uganda is discussed
as a case study to provide further evidence that satellite
communications help close the digital divide gap.
