Hai Ti!

Hai Ti! was a comic strip that spread the word about the ways that computers and the Internet can transform learners' and teachers' lives. It was created by SchoolNet Namibia.[1] It was unique in being the first publication of its kind to be published under international Creative Commons rules in Namibia.[2] The strip won third place at the World Summit Awards in 2005.[3]

The comic ceased publication in 2009 after SchoolNet fell out of favour with the Namibian government.[4]
