+NoVASEN should support the building of a Solidarity Economy School in Liberia
Description (English)
+The NOVA Web Development cooperative and its partner cooperative in Liberia, Jetro Web Development, have been discussing building a solidarity economy school in Liberia with the goal of providing education in social justice computing and other solidarity economy skills needed to help develop a just, sustainable economy in Liberia.
+
+A few years ago, we had a commitment from the Kamal Foundation in Washington, D.C. (https://nonprofitlight.com/dc/washington/kamal-foundation-inc) to build a school, but that partnership, which was then with the public school system in Monrovia, fell apart.
+
+After that, the non-profit organization Social Justice Computing (https://sjcompute.org/) was created with support for the SE economy / social justice tech project in Liberia as its main focus. Without the support of the public school system, we envision forming a non-profit organization in Liberia which would own the school.
+
+Jetro Web Development has 7 deeply committed members who could play the central role in managing this project. Solidarity economy collaboration and support from NoVASEN could play a vital role in helping it succeed.
