Why dont the willing and able WSIS Africa members and their associates source for donations of used computers (both solar powered and electric powered). To bridge the digital divide, these can be distributed to the Community Based Development organization in Africa. As a WSIS Africa member, I urge those in such a position to render the service. A journey of a thousand miles start with one step and I believe that even as we organise conefernces and debates such ground work should be going on. It is a fact ICT is a key to development and capacity building and this should be used to gap the chasm of digital illiteracy in African rurals.

In pursuit of the objectives of this cohesive group, an African Youth eConference on the World Summit on the Information Society (WSIS) held online at www.yahoogrups.com/group/wsisyouthafrica between the 20th and 30th of November 2002. It was co-ordinated by Paradigm Initiative Nigeria and ninety-six (96) young Africans from over 13 countries (from Western, Eastern, Central, Northern and Southern Africa) participated in the eConference which sought to strengthen the role of African Youths in the WSIS processes, and the eventual action plans that will be drawn.
