ICT Update magazine is looking for articles for our forthcoming issue on Teleservices.

ICT Update would like to hear from anyone developing technology services - telecentres, ICT training facilities, cell phone services - to bring information, particularly agricultural information, to rural parts of African, Caribbean and Pacific countries.

If you are involved in providing such services then please get in touch with brief details on the technology you use, the communities served, and how the work contributes to rural development in ACP countries. We are especially keen to hear from self-sustaining enterprises who can share the details of the challenges they have faced and the lessons they have learned. We will send an article outline and a list of questions to cover in the article, or organize a time for a telephone interview.

The editorial committee of ICT Update would also like to thank those who responded to our previous calls for articles, and look forward to hearing more about your ICT projects in 2012.

For more information, send an email to : Jim Dempsey - jim@contactivity.com
