  Description

  We are about an hour away from Bangalore, a large city in South India, in a village called Durgadahalli. We are a collective with a farm and we work on open source applications for the villages in mind. Also we have an annual festival at the end of the year called anthillhacks in which requires some preparation too.

  Cultural exchange and learning opportunities

  We have a farm that is largish where people can stay - tent or cabins and such. We have many visitors locally who can speak English and we are also tech people who are trying to deploy some tools to our village needs.

  Help

  We welcome builders, techies and others who would like to work with local villagers and children. We have a radio and crafts center where we are including use of AI to see how certain bridges can be built with low literate people around.
  
  Maybe you are a techie, a craft maker, a food maker, a farmer or someone who works with children or would like to experiment with something new.. we welcome your contribution.
  
  We are setting up a residential school and would like volunteers too who can cook, garden, teach English or technology.
  
  We do not charge for contributors
