Abstract

In the Framework of the Community Program stations and internet access for indigenous people; this study introduces an overview of the feasibility studio and definition of technical conditions for the installation of a link between the broadcasting station of the municipality of Santander de Quilichao with a radial production center of Toribio’s municipality. The relevant aspects of the links design, as well as defining technical conditions to visit these areas, determining the location of the links, repeaters and some calculations made for this purpose and thus, how they can possibly access to e-learning Web 2.0 tools based on LMS basically in the area of indigenous communities of Toribio, Cauca’s County in Colombia.
