Listers,

Participate in DOT’s virtual youth Unconference!

DOT is hosting a youth-led DOT Youth & Learning Unconference this week in Nairobi, Kenya at the Kenyatta University Conference Centre.

We would like to invite you to join us virtually on Thursday May 16 and Friday May 17 as young people from throughout East Africa converge on Nairobi to engage with representatives from the public, private, financial, and academic sectors to discuss issues such as employment, entrepreneurship, gender, technology, and the digital divide.

Many of the Unconference sessions will be streamed live at http://dotrust.org/unconference, and viewers will be able to participate in the discussions online and engage with attendees in Nairobi real-time.

Virtual sessions include symposiums on ICT and Digital Literacy, Gender, as well as Youth & Change, in which young people from Kenya, Rwanda, Ethiopia, Uganda, and Tanzania will share their experiences and facilitate discussions with stakeholders, virtual participants, and scholars.
