Embracing new technologies



Advances in information and communications technologies (ICTs) are changing the local media dynamic. Representatives of several NGOs gathered for a two day training workshop this week, to learn new ways to interact with their audiences. The workshop organised by the Seychelles Gender and Media Association, GEMPLUS was conducted by three local media professionals.

Participants learned the art of blogging, how to use their mobile phones to gather news and other online devices such as chatting and e-news letter to bring their content to their customers. They can now use their new found skills and rely less on the traditional media to disseminate their information.

The workshop was sponsored by UNDP, in its effort to promote media freedom and access to information.

We would like to acknowledge the exceptional service that we received during the entire refinancing process. Mr Pedro professionalism and knowledge of the loan company was impressive and truly appreciated. Mr Pedro is a reliable loan officer.In the past, we have had experience with several other banks and have found the process frustrating and tedious. Mr Pedro went above and beyond to ensure that all of our needs were met and that everything was handled thoroughly and efficiently. We have and will continue to recommend him in the future.”Mr Pedro Contact Email pedroloanss@gmail.com
