Abstract (up to 300 words to describe your proposal)
People in Africa face a real problem of Internet connectivity. And yet, it is now possible to get Wikipedia and its sister projects contents offline. In this tutorial we will learn about tools to get offline contents. Download any article in pdf format, creat a book with contents of your choice, install and deploy kiwix. The purpose of our tutorial is to raise awareness of Wikipedia and its sister projects even when we can't access Internet.
