5 years ago, Peter Bernscherer founded the “PCs for all” association, which repairs old computers and cell phones for people who cannot afford their own devices. can afford their own devices.
In the meantime, volunteers in Graz, Linz and Tyrol are also repairing the devices, and an incredible 30,000 have already been repaired.
The motto and driving force is Humboldt’s educational ideal: “Equal education for all”.
Peter Bernscherer does not see the same opportunities without a laptop or PC. “We are concerned with digital participation. Especially in the field of education, people are currently trying to make everything digital. If you don’t have a computer, you have no opportunity to participate.”
Doing, trying out, and the classic “fun with the device”, we give a name to the Viennese “someone has to do something”.
