What is the problem you found?

How might we get better internet access for farmers?

Customer / Problem

Farmers affected by the current NSW drought crisis are having to prioritise their spending on livestock (and/or agriculture), and thus need financial support in order to fulfil other basic needs - namely maintaining internet access; a critical aspect of daily life especially at a time when communication is so necessary and emergencies are a regular possibility.

FABULIS Problem

What Is Your Solution?

We aim to establish a system by which we give our farmers internet access through the funding we would source from urban dwellers. With the aid of customers in urban areas, we would be able to provide a cheap, reliable internet service for farmers affected by the drought crisis, keeping them connected at a time when access to resources, support and regular communication is crucial.
