IDRC's new telecentre.org initiative jumped out of the box at the World Summit on the Information Society in Tunis. We ran participatory workshops, launched our program and unveiled the beta version of our web site. We set up this web site as a place for online collaboration and storytelling by telecentre people attending WSIS.
moreWow! What a great time I had and wonderful people I met. Looking over the evaluation forms and the results of breakout sessions I realise that we did quite impressive work together. Congratulations to all!
moreCertainly, the world summit was a milestone. The idea that is telecentre.org is now out there in the world. More people understand it. And, I think, more people feel like they are a part of it.
