Welcome to Minodu!

Fostering local sustainable development through technology and research

Together with rural communities in the Kara region of northern Togo, students, researchers, and technical partners, the Minodu project co-designed a Local Community Network (LCN) that works without continuous internet access or electricity. It provides local weather data, agricultural audio content in French and Kabiyè, a community forum, and a market interface. The system combines low-cost hardware, environmental sensing, local knowledge, and community-based maintenance.
