<table cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" border="0" ><tr><td valign="top" style="font: inherit;">True that. The Diplo Internet Governance course was for me a perfect bridge between my ICT Technical background and the Policy world (the reverse Policy-->Technical should work too). And now plans are underway to have this course localized (through Multimedia University) to make it more relevant for the Region.<br><br>So if you belong to any of the following target group, plse apply:<br>• officials in government ministries and departments dealing with Information Society, Internet and ICT-related issues (e.g., telecommunications, education, foreign affairs, justice);<br>• officials in regulatory authorities or institutions dealing with Information Society, Internet and ICT-related issues<br>• postgraduate students, academics and researchers in the IG field (e.g., in telecommunications,electrical engineering, law, economics, development studies);<br>•
civil society activists in the IG and Information Society fields;<br>• journalists covering IG issues;<br>• individuals in Internet-business fields (e.g., ISPs, software developers).<br><br>walu.<br>--- On <b>Tue, 1/26/10, mwende njiraini <i><mwende.njiraini@gmail.com></i></b> wrote:<br><blockquote style="border-left: 2px solid rgb(16, 16, 255); margin-left: 5px; padding-left: 5px;"><br>From: mwende njiraini <mwende.njiraini@gmail.com><br>Subject: Re: [kictanet] Call for Applications for Capacity Development online programme in Internet Governance and ICT Policy<br>To: "Walubengo J" <jwalu@yahoo.com><br>Cc: "KICTAnet ICT Policy Discussions" <kictanet@lists.kictanet.or.ke><br>Date: Tuesday, January 26, 2010, 10:06 AM<br><br><div id="yiv176804271"><div>Dear Walu,</div>
