Communicating with friends all over the world, putting business ideas into practice via the Internet, learning any time and any place – Information and Communication Technologies (ICTS) have permanently changed life all over the planet.
We’d like to know what this has meant for Africans. How have mobile phones, the Internet, computers and the audiovisual media changed your life, your family’s lives or life in your corner of the Continent?
To find out, eLearning Africa 2010 is launching a photo competition called “How ICTs Are Changing the Way We Live”. Send us a picture that shows how you live, learn and work with ICTs and, along with it, forward us a brief description of the idea or project that sets the backdrop of your entry.
