Dear Alain, Thank you very much for your compliment and advice to comment photos! Meanwhile i invite you to our album on with comments: ITF Facebook album. (http://www.facebook.com/media/albums/?id=100001514240611). To promote the cause we only join any social network we come across but yet we can't see fruits. Any advice? For resource we actually depend on our youth members' contribution and some local companies rare sponsorship.
Thanks for the welcome! I met Klaus on Tuesday and am pleased to be a part of this community. I've known of your work for a while...
You can see my blog recap about our meeting here: http://beckyblab.com/urban-futures-new-mindsets-unhabitatny/1929/
I was very much impressed by this Ning website! I'm looking primarily to connect with professionals working in ICTD and maybe find out about job opportunities too...
Thanks for the blog recap! This is certainly a good place to do that!
Best, Alain
