> 
>  	Asia Development is an educational channel, dealing with
>  	literacy, Women's Health, and other development issues.
>  	Information is portable, relatively inexpensive and yet one of
>  	the most  powerful tools known. But in many parts of the world,
>  	information is a scarce and inaccessible resource. By providing
>  	critical information and education to remote and underserved
>  	communities, Asia Development helps people help themselves.

>  	Mission
>  	The Equal Access Mission is to create positive change for large
>  	numbers of people in the developing world by providing 
critically
