Lots of thanks Selene,
From e-consultation on PRSPs to e-course on PRSPs :-).
Some outcomes: well vest with PRSPs, Informed, Empowered etc.
In my view, will give us the urge to lobby governments and stakeholders to involve young people in the formulation and implementation of PRSPs initiatives.
Also. the pains of struggling to pay lots on airfare and other cost to attend workshops and conferences to acquire knowledge on PRSPs will be addressed. The internet has proved to be a useful tool in bridging the digital divide!
Lets start making imputs to the realisation of this laudable initiative!
Thanks
Kwame
