Information for Change 2010
Digital Publishing in Africa: The Next Steps
Date: 21 September 2010
Location: Nairobi, Kenya
In July 2009 the first undersea cable to bring high-speed internet access to East Africa went live, opening up new opportunities for digital publishing in the region.
Information for Change 2010 will examine emerging digital publishing models in East Africa. Speakers will present first-hand experience of the realities of working in the region, and will showcase and share innovative approaches to the creation and delivery of information. The programme will include a keynote address, a speaker-led panel session, two World Café sharing sessions, case studies presentations, a venue for participants to display materials, and a moderated interactive session that will involve all participants.
Information for Change 2010 is the first workshop in the series to be held in Kenya, and is scheduled for the day before the opening of the 13th Nairobi International Book Fair.
