#6 Common Room | Indonesia

Let's go to Indonesia together to meet the Common Room Networks Foundation and its co-founder Gustaff Iskandar. This is a project that works with art, culture, communication and new technologies. Gustaff helped build the community network in Ciptagelar Traditional Village, in West Java. According to him, there are around 12,000 villages that are still disconnected in Indonesia, and not only from internet access – more than half of them still don't have any adequate source of electricity.

In this episode, we also travel to Australia. There, we spoke with Carlos Rey-Moreno, from the Association for Progressive Communications (APC). He's one of the coordinators of the Local Networks initiative and works to promote enabling policy and regulation for community-led communications models..

“Routing for Communities” is a 12-episode podcast. Here you will be able to listen to the life stories of people who build inspiring community-led projects to connect the third of humankind that is still living offline.
