About Me
- Yommie - ICT Development Champion
- Sheffield, United Kingdom
- This blog is about my interest in international development issues especially the digital divide,ICTs, media and governance in Africa, child labour and actualisation of the MDGs. It was a project that started after I attended the GFTU's International Development Champions course in Wortley, South Yorkshire in 2005. I set up the blog as a collaborative portal for all the other participants to publish their works and projects. The aim is to sensitise other UK journalists and trade union members about the international development and globalisation issues and its implications for labour, migration and trade in the UK.
