From early projects on vocational training in massage techniques for visually impaired young people, its initiatives have evolved to embrace digital opportunities... Information and communication technologies (ICT) were the enabler of choice to allow people with disabilities to compete at the high end of the job market. In cooperation with the UNESCO Office in Beijing, the Beijing Disabled Persons' Federation (BDPF) developed and conducted courses on cartoon-design and typesetting training for 71 unemployed physically challenged people. The training helped them to find employment as multimedia graphic cartoon editors, cover and package designers and professional typesetters in the public and private sectors." http://portal.unesco.org/ci/en/ev.php-URL_ID=26030&URL_DO=DO_TOPIC&URL_SECTION=201.html -- <><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><> Ms. Jayne Cravens MSc Bonn, Germany Services for Nonprofits/NGOs/Civil Society www.coyotecommunications.com www.ivisit.com id: jcravens.4947 <><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><> _______________________________________________ DIGITALDIVIDE mailing list DIGITALDIVIDE@digitaldivide.net http://digitaldivide.net/mailman/listinfo/digitaldivide To unsubscribe, send a message to digitaldivide-requ...@digitaldivide.net with the word UNSUBSCRIBE in the body of the message. _______________________________________________ DIGITALDIVIDE mailing list DIGITALDIVIDE@digitaldivide.net http://digitaldivide.net/mailman/listinfo/digitaldivide To unsubscribe, send a message to digitaldivide-requ...@digitaldivide.net with the word UNSUBSCRIBE in the body of the message.
