Hi Coenraad,
On the Global Access to the Internet for All (GAIA) mailing list there has
been quite a lot of activity on this at the moment. Maybe you can check the
logs there.
In particular, the University of Pennsylvania launched recently the 1 World
Connected: http://1worldconnected.org/ which aims at gather the info you
mention. An excell containing the projects they found so far is here:
https://goo.gl/rZLsWN although they are constantly upgrading it. Soon, they
will incorporate, among other things, the list of self-defined community
networks in Africa that Michael Graff and I created for the 1st report of
this Coalition, that Luca has been curating. You can access a pre-print
version of the paper can be found at: https://www.researchgate.net/
publication/309291449_Map_of_the_Community_Network_Initiatives_in_Africa
In there there is distinction about which ones are rural, urban, or both.
Hope it helps,
carlos

Hi Coenraad,
I don´t have a list, but I know a partner organization (ANID) that have
a strong relationship with rural movements in Brazil, connecting them.
They organize small ISPs to share backbones/backhauls infrastructure and
to buy broadband wholesale. Then they charge % of the broadband for
digital inclusion. With this, they connect rural areas, poor people etc. I
believe they have over 300 points of internet access. I´m very impressed by
their work.
Here goes their contact: presidencia(a)anid.org.br
All the best,
Laura.

Hi All
Does anyone have a comprehensive list of rural access deployments
including how they were funded, managed or whether facilitated by
government, regulation, NGO or private sector?
If not, is anyone keen to assist with building such a list? If so,
please get in touch.
