Good distance learning and e-learning programmes for aid workers  are hard to find. I just posted a list of seven courses and programmes that I know of - from Human Rights to Mine Action and from a complete university degree to a short module on H1N1. Please leave a comment if you know of more.

I am so excited to see the global faces and issues represented by the featured project introductions (adding to the excitement was the fact that the first presenters delivered and translated their introduction in French, included a "Yes We Can" reference, and incorporated a direct threat to tyranny in the Ivory Coast. Amazing.) While there is a lot of representation here from the states, this group is truly a global one in heart and representation.

I just want to introduce our IJCentral featured project and welcome any comments - I look forward to receiving comments or questions from N2Y4 conference participants.  You can find the project at: http://www.netsquared.org/projects/ijcentral

 Here is a trailer of The Reckoning, the documentary that will be driving the IJCentral project:

It’s been an action-packed Challenge season, and the winners keep rolling in! NetSquared and UC Berkeley’s (UCB) Human Rights Center are pleased to announce the top three winning Projects from the HRC Mobile Challenge. Stay tuned for the winners of the N2Y4 Mobile Challenge and Microsoft Mobile Challenge, announced May 26-27 at the N2Y4 Conference.

Congratulations to the HRC Mobile Challenge winners:

Great news that we made it into the N2Y4 Mobile Challenge!  It's nice to receive the approval of your peers! 

We invite community members at NetSquared to vote for Face the Change in the N2Y2 Mobile Challenge. Funding for our project will enable us to implement a pilot study in Bangladesh that aims to include some of the poorest communities in the search for solutions to climate change. These are the very groups that stand to lose their homes, livelihoods and heritage as a result of rising seas.

 We at Face the Change believe:

That climate change is affecting communities today, all over the world, and will continue to do so in the coming decades.

There's ony one more day to vote for your favorite project proposals from the UC Berkeley Human Rights Center Mobile Challenge!

Every single one of the projects has an element (or many elements, for that matter) of intrige, thoughtfulness, and/or just-plain-cool packed into them and half the fun of voting is simply getting a lay of the land of just what's going on in the world of mobile tech development for good. 

With the week at it's halfway point, there's ony two and a half more days to vote for your favorite project proposals from the UC Berkeley Human Rights Center Mobile Challenge!

Our team have submitted a project, Peru: Truth and Reconciliation, for the the UC Berkeley Human Rights Center Mobile Challenge!

Today, I've seen a great technology innovation, the world will talk about the next few months, it is the Spreading-it, received by everyone…
What is that ?! …
It is the technique used to post active events to publicity, on two minutes or so, most of the world will know what you're just seeing, amazing, just open up your mobile camera, capture any violation, save it and sent it to a world-wide number and it is published online and sent to human-rights organization and also to government and concerned around the world …
Not only, they are spreading a Bluetooth devices on hot-spots around the world which sends this media files and active-posts to the people surrounding it.
