First 6 months of Globalink Africa and what's next

Globalink Africa created blogs for the 5 correspondents at the end of January 2007.

What are the main results 6 months later and after the COP2 conference in Bangkok?

Globalink Africa at the COP2 Conference

Globalink Africa was very much present at the COP2 via the conference blog where contributing bloggers were mostly Africans (6 on a total of 9) :)
Several new correspondents got the blog bug and I have already created 2 new blogs for them:
Le blog de Patric Musavuli (from Lubumbashi in the Democratic Republic of Congo) and a blog for Le Mouvement Anti Tabac (MAT) based in Senegal.
I have requests for a second blog in Senegal, one in Niger (Inoussa Saouna) and one for the Coalition CPEACT. More could come...

I remain convinced that soon everybody will want a blog and the previous traditional websites will all but be replaced by blogs: this creates a strong opportunity for Globalink to serve the tobacco control community as it is clear to me that having a "friendly helping hand" is a key factor for people to start blogging.

We can give special thanks to Jackie Tumwine who was present in Bangkok and generously shared her blogging expertise (she is the most advanced blogger in Globalink Africa) with the newcomers.
