access to information for all.

60-70%% of Sierra Leoneans are illiterate and rely on audio - visual news and entertainment. The minimum wage in Sierra Leone is $30/month, hence individuals that live on $1-2/ day cannot afford a conventional satellite dish at $30 nor a monthly subscription at $30. As a result 2 mio. Sierra Leoneans are cut off from this type of access to information.

The LILI ANTENNA provides an opportunity to watch all local television channels for free, bridging the information-access-gap in low-income households.

The LILI ANTENNA is made from 90% waste materials, with its outer casing made from recycled plastic and the inner technology using recycled aluminum cans, contributing to environmental conservation, while delivering news, entertainment, and access to information to everyone.

During the pandemic, the demand for the LILI ANTENNA grew rapidly. Thus far we have sold over 1,500 units across Sierra Leone, Liberia, and Guinea, positively impacting more than 5,000 beneficiaries.
