(Not by ourselves alone)
• We share a vision intended to accelerate the
global growth of Internet2 to achieve
"universal educational access” such that it:
• Enables and stimulates the rapid expansion of
educational collaboration in many forms between
and among teaching and learning institutions
around the world.
• Cultivates and promotes practical solutions to
delivering scalable, universally available and
equitable means of access to suitable bandwidth
and necessary network resources in support of
these collaborations.

IEEAF Objectivtes
"Non Nobis Solo"
(Not by ourselves alone)
•Act to insure enhance educational access to bandwidth for
educational institutions and their academic, research and
services/outreach needs.
•Promote Partnerships with government/private entities/
educational institutions to distribute education content across
networks, nations,and on a truly global basis
•Promote and/or operate a low cost reliable repository of
access and network resources and information to achieve
these capabilities for educational purpose
•Perform Asset Management for the Foundation, its members
and associates on a global basis for educational purposes

IEEAF Strategies
"Non Nobis Solo"
(Not by ourselves alone)
To achieve the vision of IEEAF, we intend to create
frameworks and alliances between University and other
educational leadership groups, industry and
political/governmental leaders.
Methods of helping IEEAF include donations of physical
facilities (co-location and riser space), equipment, licenses to
"rights of way","dark fiber" or conduits at selected points of
build-out of the US and global fiber-optical network, or “wavelengths. Such donations will be a principal means of
connectivity and linkage for educational institutions to conduct
teaching and learning.
