• The People's Open Access Educational Initiative, the Peoples-uni, was registered in January 2007. Our aim is to help with Public Health capacity building in low- to middle-income countries, through Internet based education. The use of Open Educational Resources freely available on the Internet, and volunteers to staff the Initiative, allows this to be offered at very low cost.

• An application for charitable status has been approved by the UK Charity Commission, as PEOPLE'S OPEN ACCESS EDUCATION INITIATIVE - REGISTERED NO: 1126265

• Trustees include Professor Rajan Madhok (Chair), Dr Selwyn Hodge, Mr Alec Tice (Treasurer), Ms Maggie Davies, and Professor Dick Heller (Coordinator of the Peoples-uni)
