[Shipra Sharma]

Dear Members,telecentre.org
and Centre for Science, Development and Media Studies (CSDMS) have
conceptualised a book on '1000 ideas to make telecentres work' to
highlight the innovations and success stories in the telecentre
domain. The Editorial Team of this book is led by Dr. Basheerhamad
Shadrach, Executive Director, telecentre.org Foundation with support
from telecentre magazine team. 




This
publication would serve as a valuable resource and guide on the best
practices in the telecentre domain and distributed across telecentre
networks. In this regard, telecentre.org and CSDMS are making a joint
appeal to all members of the telecentre community and all Community
Facilitators to support them in identifying such stories and
contributing to the book.
 


The
contributors are requested to write such stories around the following
template:  

1. The
Idea- An explanation of the original concept around which the project
is conceived.
2. The
idea originator- The person who conceived the idea and implemented
the project  based on this (photograph and brief profile)
3. The
idea in practice- A description of how the project is being
implemented on the ground.
4. Idea
replication potential- Whether the project could be replicated within
a certain region or globally. 

5. Idea
replication tips (for telecentres and telecentre networks)- It would
include 'why to replicate', 'who can do this' (also suggesting
relevant partnerships for idea implementation) and 'how to proceed'. 




The
contributions of the idea originator and the story writer (if s/he is
other than the idea originator) would be acknowledged in the book.
The contributors are also requested to send at least five High
Resolution pictures to accompany the stories. For stories to be
included into the book, it is important that the ideas are actually
being implemented on the ground. The deadline for story submission is
15th February 2010.
