dc.description.abstractIn this video, we present an overview of our NSF-funded project that investigates an efficient and effective community-based approach for setting up free Internet access to low-income families in Baltimore City, MD, during and following the COVID-19 crisis. Using a sociotechnical approach, we are combining the technical work of setting up distributed mesh-networks in the urban context with the development of localized, trusted and open-access online education, career, communication, and information sharing resources.
