| Apart
from the intended and obvious use of K-yan in classrooms,
K-yan’s versatility can be exploited to generate
revenues from diverse applications including its
use as an entertainment-cum-education centre.
For instance, wider reach of the device ensures
that it can be leveraged by companies that focus
on rural markets for their products as a medium
of delivering targeted promotion campaigns. It
can also be used by Government agencies, NGOs
and religious bodies, which seek to disseminate
information in relation to health and social awareness
campaigns.
This possibility of generating sustainable revenue
streams at the local level would promote the creation
of ‘micro-entrepreneurs’. This employment
generation at the local level would ensure community
participation and therefore commercial viability
of K-yan operation on a long-term basis. |
