Solar Engineers

It's been more than 30 years since the first Barefoot College was established in Tilonia, a village in northern India. Since then, smaller Barefoot Colleges have sprung up around the country to train poor, rural people in health care, education, and handicrafts, and to bring these skills back to their communities.

One particularly successful program teaches rural Indian women to become solar engineers. Sunita Thakur reports from the Barefoot College headquarters in Tilonia.
