Government presents e-Islands project

By the next school year, 20 schools on the Adriatic islands off Zadar, Sibenik, Trogir and Dubrovnik are to be connected with schools on the mainland through a broadband network as part of the e-Islands project, for which the government has earmarked HRK 16.6 million, the Central State Office for e-Croatia announced on Tuesday.

The project will enable remote teaching, because schools on the islands often have one or two pupils in a class, and should also encourage people to stay on the islands, the State Secretary of the Office for e-Croatia, Miroslav Kovacic, said.

The Office also plans to connect all other inhabited islands through a broadband network. (Hina)
