In partnership with Technical Centre for Agriculture and Rural cooperation(CTA), Rwanda Telecentre Network (RTN) is organizing a two-days Telecentre Forum on 16th and 17th Decembre in Kigali.

The telecentre forum intends to give a platform for telecentre practitioners for learning and sharing experience; discuss subjects like sustainability, connectivity and relevant content. More importantly, the forum will offer to the participants a unique occasion to exchange their understanding and views on how to transform Telecentres from a mere ICT access point to community service and knowledge hub.

Objectives of the forum:

  • Share ideas on how to ensure self sustainable telecentres while addressing the social economical challenges of the Rwandan community .
  • Discuss critical challenges affecting sustainability of telecentres in Rwanda (connectivity, content, technology ect…)
  • Develop skills for telecentre staff in accessing and utilizing online learning and sharing platform.
  • Discuss recent developments in Rwanda Telecentre movement and new plans for bringing ICTs to rural masses.

The forum will also be an opportunity to launch RTN new portal which will be used as platform for knowledge exchange between telecentres operators and other stakeholders.
