themes:
E-networking We have a three year grant from Lloyds TSB which
started in April 2005 to develop a CTDU student association portal
website. Our Information Communication Technology & Resources
Development Worker is supporting participants to write up their
personal stories about poverty and social exclusion and teaching
them how to upload their own contributions to the website. She will
teach participants how to use the website, develop links with other
volunteers and community activists, local/national/international
organisations and encourage them to use other community ICT facilities
and expertise.
