Internet Connection to 4 Villages of the Municipality of San Isidro, Province of Davao del Norte, Mindanao, Philippines

Davao Medical School Inc. (DMSF)

This small grant project will connect four villages in the San Isidro municipality of Mindanao via Point to Point (P2P) data connections. A P2P connection is a closed network data transport service that traverses the public Internet but is inherently secure with no data encryption needed.

A P2P network can also be configured to carry voice, video, Internet, and data services together over the same point to point connection. DMSF will partner with local organizations in each village to develop local capacity for maintenance and security.
