This website has been setup primarly as a way to enhance internal communication within the team, but also as a way to report to our funder (IDRC) and other people with interest in our work, how the project is progessing.

The content of the website is structured after project phases and its deliverables. As we speak, the project is active in Phase A, B and C.

At the bottom of the right column, information about the six Telecentres and their partners can be found.
