Abstract

In this issue, the focus is on telecentre.org Academy and the transition to telecentre.org 2.0 Since Philippines will be the new host of the academy, the Philippine success is reported on. In addition, strategies for bridging the digital divide could make telecentres instrumental in coping with climate catastrophe, contributing to human security and other unforeseen challenges. The magazine provides coverage of telecentre events from across the world.
