Catholic Relief Services ICT4D partnerships conference - call for applications

[Florence Scialom]

Hi all,

I thought this could be of interest for some FrontlineSMS users here on the community:

Catholic Relief Services (CRS) is running a conference on creating value through ICT4D partnerships, which will look at how NGOs, governments and the private sector can innovate together. This conference will take place March 27-28 in Kigali, Rwanda, and CRS are currently seeking applications from vendors, nongovernmental organizations and government agency teams to present at the 2012 ICT4D conference on the theme of partnerships. In order to be considered, projects should meet the following criteria:

1. Successful deployment/use in the field.
2. Relevant to major NGO service sectors, including health, agriculture, education, microfinance, distance learning, emergency response and monitoring and evaluation.
3. Demonstrated impact on the quality of relief and development programs.
4. Ongoing value to developing communities.

If you are interested you can visit the CRS website for further information about the conference and on the application process.

Hope this is helpful!
