Stockholm challenge Finalist!!
Category: Amazing facts | Date: Apr 01 2008 | By: admin
Dear friends, we have been listed as finalists in the Stockholm Challenge. The Challenge targets ICT for Development projects globally and is an effort to search for excellent examples of information and communication technologies that show convincing benefits to people and communities, wide impact and proofs of future sustainability.
You can read our project description here.
The prize includes a week in Kista, a town north of Stockholm from 19th - 22nd May. We have to find money to make it for this event so I will have to think about how to do this, but for now we are soooo excited about this. Any ideas on who we could approach would be much appreciated.
Please keep all your fingers and toes crossed for us ![]()

It’s a meeting of all the experts and innovators in IT - we will be presenting what we do, networking and hopefully finding new partnerships and approaches. The award is also given there, yes.

Fingers, toes, and eyes crossed too! Are you guys looking for a place to stay, while you are there? Somebody must know of someone who would extend their hospitality…open their home to you. Perhaps a contact with the university there?

Congratulations, Paula and the whole team - you certainly deserve to win…I think it’s amazing to see what a real difference WildlifeDirect is making to projects on the ground in Africa, by being a bridge between those who want to help and the people who are running the projects…
I’m crossing fingers, toes, eyes, the lot for you too!
