"It's not all about you, Kim!"

http://www.mobileactive08.org/ Our organisation is sending two staff to this high quality conference on mobile technologies for social action in Johannesburg next month. This will be an important professional development opportunity for our staff and we look forward to them returning as ‘experts’ in this exciting new phase of the digital world.

In related news, we have also agreed to sponsor Kenneth Msiska from The Young Advocates for ICT Advancement in Malawi http://www.youngictadvocates.org/index.html to attend the COMMACT conference http://www.commact.com/ in Brisbane in late October and to meet with him to see how we can assist their organisation in its development.

As Kath would say, “It’s not all about you, Kim!” and it’s important that we stay mindful that we are global citizens as well.

Doug -- so pleased to hear that your staff are coming! We'll twist their brains, inspire them, and they come home as experts. Sorry not to see you in Joburg, but we will give them much love!
