The Telecentre Stakeholders Workshop - MENA Region (2/2)

2006. Length: 12m11s. English/French/Arabic with English subtitles.

Between December 5 and 7, 2006, telecentre stakeholders from North Africa and Middle East met in Cairo, Egypt as part of an ongoing telecentre.org study on the status of telecentres in the region. Thirty-five participants from key initiatives and development partners attended the workshop, which marked telecentre.org's entry into the region. Participants agreed to network within the region, as well as to connect with other telecentres around the world. Activities that emerged from the workshop include the translation of telecentre.org site into Arabic, the creation of an Arabic version of Telecentre Times (http://www.ugabytes.org/telecentretimes /), and content development and telecentre training.
