Dear all,
Greetings from telecentre magazine!

It provides in-depth review and analysis of the role of public access to technology, focusing on research findings, innovations, and current thinking and debates. 




The next edition of the telecentre magazine focuses on the theme 'inclusion and telecentres' with special thrust on 'financial inclusion'. The issue would seek to explore ways in which telecentres could contribute to the inclusion agenda, especially financial inclusion and contribute to the ongoing efforts at making telecentres, tools of socio-economic development. This issue will also seek to examine how telecentres can and are facilitating the process of including the excluded. The issue will highlight the various ICT4D initiatives, especially telecentres, across the world furthering the inclusion agenda, particularly financial inclusion in order to demonstrate how an inclusionary approach could become a part of the national agenda of development further leading to democratisation where telecentres would play a significant role.
