TAIPEI (Taiwan News) – National Tsing Hua University (NTHU) plans to send volunteers and secondhand desktop computers to Kenya and other countries this summer, reports said Wednesday (May 22).

At a news conference, the university presented the 46 volunteers about to travel to Kenya, Malaysia, and Indonesia. A planned trip to Tanzania had to be canceled due to a red travel alert issued by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs (MOFA), with the volunteers joining the Kenya group instead, per CNA.

The university has collected 72 desktops, 22 laptops, and five projectors, with some of them to be delivered to Tanzania by a Catholic priest from the East African country. The donation will enable local teachers and students to continue computer education classes. The volunteers intend to spend six weeks in Kenya, visiting schools, teaching computer classes, and training teachers.

The Indonesia group has already visited Jakarta during the winter holidays, and was scheduled to spend two weeks in the summer to teach Mandarin and provide practical AI education.

Volunteers heading to Malaysia will publish a magazine, record a documentary, and teach elementary school pupils about smartphone photography, the university said. The project is in Pekan Nanas, a town in the southern state of Johor bordering Singapore.

Since NTHU started the volunteer travel program in 2007, more than 700 of its students have helped out with projects in Africa, Central America, and Asia. The university based in Hsinchu City receives assistance from the ASUS Foundation for the program.
