NOMA -IT BUSINESS CENTER Executive Summary

Manyu Division lacks reliable communications systems. This lack of connectivity has contributed to the underdevelopment and the impoverishment of individual Manyu people. To address this problem, NOMA had established an IT Business Center in Mamfe, Manyu division in 2003 with the hope of later rolling it to the rest of the subdivisions. The project cost was approximately $30,000.00 with over 70% coming from members' project fees and 30% from outside donors.
