Fundraising Meeting moved to Monday morning, 9am at Jacaranda
by Wainaina Mungai 15 Mar '06

15 Mar '06

Dear all, Given that the short notice may have denied most an opportunity to participate, Alice will be asking the funders for an extension of the deadline to next Wednesday. This means KICTAnet members will need to work on a detailed workplan that they will approve on Monday. A special planning meeting is therefore scheduled for Monday morning, 9am at Jacaranda. Please confirm your attendance as you send your input. The activities in the proposal will mainly be the activities KICTANet has discussed in previous meetings. Regards, --- Wainaina Mungai http://www.madeinkenya.org SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT is development that meets the needs of the present without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs.
