From a TB Coordinator in the state of Orissa (India) I was fortunate to meet and to quote in a report for the WHO. Best, Andrew Pleasant >Hi everyone, > >As many of you know, I'm editing a book on the telecentres movement >with IDRC. One of the sections of the book is going to be a photo >montage of people involved in digital divide projects around the >world, and we're hoping to include a series of quotes from people >with the photos. We're looking for inspirational, thoughtful quotes >-- not too long, preferably -- from people involved in bridging the >digital divide, telecentres, community media, ICT4D, etc, as well as >people who are benefiting from these programs. (For example, I love >citing Jello Biafra's line, "Don't hate the media - BECOME the >media!") The book is intended for an international audience, so >we're seeking quotes from around the world. > >Does anyone have any favorite quotes they'd like us to consider for >inclusion?
