Matsepe-Casaburri to open a NEPAD e-School Initiative Workshop
17 January 2005
The Minister of Communications, Ivy Matsepe-Casaburri, will be delivering a keynote address at the second workshop on the NEPAD e-Schools Initiative, a flagship project of NEPAD, which is scheduled to take place at Pretoria’s CSIR Convention Centre, Ruby room, on 24 January 2005 at 9:00am.
At the first workshop that was held in May last year, it was agreed that a continental Coordinating Body be established. This body is made up of senior representatives of the governments of the first-phase countries. Hence, this second workshop brings together those government representatives to deliberate and take forward the Initiative to its next developmental stage, namely, the demonstration project.
Matsepe-Casaburri is expected to mention a few more developmental processes during her keynote address.
All media is invited to attend.
