Just for fun though!!!.all work without play makes Jack a dull boy..Guys are taking this green thing too far..Now, if you frequent gyms, you will know that a lot of energy is dissipated (and wasted during workouts).Not anymore!!!!....read this.......
The major challenge that faces telecentres, those entrusted with the responsibility of information dissemination, particularly ICT4D in any particular area of specialty (I deal in timely application of appropriate ICT4D in Agriculture), is the cha...
I think TCF should focus mainly on the private sector and NGOs who are involved in the practice of community focal points for information dissemination. Government engagement should be minimal because I think governments performance in analogy to ...

and sustainable business practices, technologies and solutions globally. Also there are government which have put economic development as pr...
Hi people
Am back after a short break.
straight to the point..there is a lot of talk about this climate change conference and we in Telecentre and IT cannot afford to be left behind. Does IT play any role in combating or mitigating climate change ...
I completely agree with you Owino and I am very positive that the day will come when climate change will be reversed.
Hi Seu,
Am glad to be back home. Thanx again for your welcome. Nice time.
Thanks shipra. When I first watched the video, i thought it was funny and that the guys were out for some publicity stunt..but upon reflections later, i was like..wait!!!! those guys have a serious point to drive home...its my sincere hope that so...
It is a backword way of thinking...the internet is here to stay irrespecive of what they do. If they cant beat us,they should join us. Censorship is an enemy everywhere and should be combated as such. Ethiopia....get a life!!!!!

The majority of public sector employees do not know about environmentally friendly ICT policies Huh!!
The UK (And I think all governments should find out) government set out its target within the Greening ICT Strategy, which calls for government IT to be carbon neutral by 2012, with office carbon emissions down 11.5% by 2011.
The report, The Path to Green Government, was produced by Global Action Plan and commissioned by Cisco. It found that 60% of respondents to the questionnaire were not aware of the government’s strategy, with 41% of national government respondents not even being aware of th… Continue

There are plenty of topics for this list. All of them diverse and relevant, but first the Foundation should focus on consolidation and multiplication of what TC.org has done well up to this point.

Here my list:

The Foundation should be able to increase its influence, as long as it can demonstrate that it is leading a global diverse network of telecentres and that it is capable of well-coordinated collaborations. Acting often as one unique body, the telec...

The success of Shilpa Sayura in up-scaling and replicating its 20 pilot Telecenters into 150 Telecenters in less than 3 years is indeed very remarkable. With that, I could say that the people behind Shilpa Sayura really did some honest-to-goodness...
Jimmy,
Shilpa Sayura is a World bank funded project, just the funding wouldn't make a project a success, commitment of individuals, open participatory platforms, M & E and many other factors influence success in ICT4D. This mainly happen due to ga...

We also have information about some private investors, like telecommunication companies, wanting to penetrate unserved and underserved areas but can't proceed due to problematic local ecosystems. This and many more factors complicate our efforts i...
Many of us here I'm sure are not aware of the reasons why those development projects failed despite the presence of funding support, which we all know is an important element of success. That is a big question to me too. And for our TC.org to succ...
I agree with Niranjan. There could be some great wealth that can emanate from the grassroots - for their own people and this whole planet - if given the chance to develop themselves into "social technopreneurs". And to probably bring about that fo...
This is a common scenario in almost all developing countries, most especially in regard to large infrastructure projects like internet connectivity and power/electricity. Private businesses generally do not invest in the rural mountains and far-fl...
