Dear Friends Greetings from Quito and sorry for the late introduction.
My name is Klaus Stoll and I am the President of the Chasquinet Foundation in Quito, Ecuador. Chasquinet is an a private non-profit organisation in Ecuador dedicated to empowering grass-roots organisations, campesinos, minority groups and impoverishing sectors in general through the promotion and use of the Internet. Chasquinet views the Internet as a tool that can be used to enable poor communities to improve their living standards, to help them voice out their opinions and demands and to create an impact on the crafting of social and economic policies that affect communities. Our work philosophy is one that priories gender, empowerment and equitity. We approach our work with a holistic philosophy that stresses personal growth and development to be crucial elements of organisations building and growth. Chasquinet's Community Development Programme helps build a telecentre network in the region. A central goal of this programme is to develop a learning evaluation frameworks for telecentros and to collect stories that will ensure the knowlege sharing and knowlege management among telecentre in order to exert a greater impact on policies and events that shape their lives. Yours Klaus _______________________________________________ telecentres mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mailman-new.greennet.org.uk/mailman/listinfo/telecentres To unsubscribe, send a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the word UNSUBSCRIBE in the body of the message.
