Dear Tak
As advised by you, I would like to submit my comments for Travel funds to attend such conferences:
- InfoDev should give priority to attendees form Developing countries such as ours in getting travel grant and also to insititution who are operating on a not for profit such as PLANWEL to further the cause of education in a local and more important international context.
- Travel grant information should be available well in advance and communications channels should be open. Some of our communication to the INfodev for travel grant were never replied or acknowledged.
- Sponsors should provide conference details and information of all attendees to the Info Dev/NSF for obtaining travel funds ASAP.
- The Tokyo Conference due in April 2000 should have attendees from Developing countries, recommended by Sponsors of Conference, who do not have funds and are an important link in the Global education process and transfer of knowledge to the developing nations.
I hope these comments may be of some use to you.
Kind regards=20
