Dear GKD Members, OneWorld South Asia (OWSA) <http://southasia.oneworld.net>, a New Delhi-based civil society network that works to give voice to the voiceless through a network of people and groups is pleased to announce a South to South Learning Exchange Programme "ICTs Enabling Communication Opportunities for the Grassroots", between 18th March - 24th March 2005.
HIVOS, MSSRF and GKP have pioneered the concept of experience sharing between grassroots organizations through traveling workshops for Grassroots Organisations. These traveling workshops have helped organisations to understand various initiatives in ICT and development and also helped in various organizations adapting to the methodologies. Programme officers and implementers of ICT-enabled development projects from Partner Organisations of OneWorld Africa, Latin America and India are invited to participate in the programme. We would expect participants to have some familiarity with IT and community development and they should be in a position to make immediate use of what they learn in the workshop in their projects/ programmes. Participation is requested from organisations in Africa, Latin America and India. There will be 15 participants in total for the programme. The workshop will help the participants to better integrate modern ICT in their development projects, by giving them a perspective on various technologies involved in rural ICT. Besides, it will help them to blend ICT into the local knowledge management process.
