BACKGROUND
TV5Monde cultural centers are a leading network in the promotion of cultural activities in Burundi. They allow the public to come to learn French and connect to the world. The arrival of the Koombooks in 4 of these centers (Bujumbura, Ngozi, Gitega et Bururi) will help revitalize the work already being undertaken in these centers by providing new and quality contents suited to different audiences, and as a result, transform them into must-go to places to learn about new technologies in Burundi.
