Abstract :
Nowadays information concentration is one of the cruelest ways of exclusion in the world. People who don´t have information access are more and more away from the modern world. And not only information is important but also knowledge and how to use and profit from this knowledge. This paper presents the Poli Para Todos program that is opening and offering, for free, all the content of undergraduate courses of Escola Politocnica da Universidade de Sao Paulo.
