iEARN Zambia - SchoolNet Practitioner Presentation
iEARN activities have been in existence in Zambia for the last three years. Schools have been participating in a handful of iEARN projects deliberately or accidentally. It took a meeting of youths to realise that it would be very beneficial for all participants in iEARN projects in Zambia to come together under an umbrella body; iEARN Zambia. Rescue Mission Zambia spearheaded the youth meeting and was chosen to be the iEARN contact in Zambia but iEARN Zambia would comprise all interested youth groups and schools. [570]
