Telecentre.org: From the Ground Up e-book
Telecentre.org has released a very complete booklet focusing on telecenters and community-based access to information technologies. This book provides a quick glimpse into the lives of a few of the people who are leading the telecentre movement in their own countries, and of the people who are benefiting from their local telecentres. From the introduction: "Just like the telecentre movement, creating this book was a collective endeavour. From the very start, we invited others into the process, asking for ideas on the most interesting telecentre projects in the world. From there, we spoke with dozens of people in each country that we visited, all of them committed to the values of the telecentre movement. In the end, this book is built from the words, images, ideas and passion that so many people shared with us so generously. These people comprise a list so long that we could not possibly capture every name, although we have tried to do so on the final pages of our book. It is to these people, and to the thousands like them in the telecentre movement around the world, that this book is dedicated."
