The creation of PING was not inspired by one moment of obligation or one idea but instead by an ongoing first-hand learning process as we attempted to implement innovative technology projects in Botswana and make them sustainable.
PING's former name was the Botswana Association for Positive Living (BAPL), which was founded in January 2009 in Gaborone, Botswana. To view the story of the founding of PING please click here to read a blog post by the Director of Operations on the origins of the organization.
