dc.description.abstract This presentation discusses open education resources, educational projects in rural areas, enabling communities to empower themselves with knowledge etc. The MobilED (mobile education) initiative is aimed at designing learning and teaching environments that are meaningfully enhanced with mobile technologies and services. Libre shifts the focus towards the learners giving them freedom to learn, which enhances social construction. It highlights a vision to keep one focussed, acknowledges the need for collective wisdom; for a sustainable world. Libre suggests the “Development as Freedom” perspective; it views development in terms of expanding substantive freedoms and directs attention towards the ends that make development important rather than merely to some of the means en
