AFRO-NETS> The Stockholm Challenge Award

The Stockholm Challenge Award
-----------------------------

Dear Sir/Madam,

I work for the Stockholm Challenge Award, which is a non-profit ini-
tiative whose task is to spread knowledge and encourage the use of
information technology. We run an outstanding event yearly by invit-
ing cities and organizations worldwide to participate in a contest
that focuses on the benefit that High Tech can generate for their
community.

The essence of the Challenge is to reduce barriers and make informa-
tion available. We are looking for IT-projects, which engage and in-
form people and offer them a new way to develop and improve their
common life.

The contest is free and projects can compete in seven categories: New
Economy, Education, Health and Quality of Life, Public Services and
Democracy, Culture and Entertainment, Environment, a Global Village.

Admittance is still open for running projects and the deadline is
March 1, 2001. Bring your projects into focus and get the impact that
you deserve by joining The Stockholm Challenge Award.

Sincerely yours,

Alix Porsenna
