Samenvatting. Sociale delocalisering en Eerlijke Handel in IT, door Dr. Richard Heeks

Kuala Lumpur, 14 December 2007: Well we’ve just wrapped up 5 days of non-stop activities at one of the world’s largest ICT 4 development conferences here in KL, Malaysia. It’s been a whirlwind of a week.

This was the 3rd Global Knowledge Conference I’ve been to over the last 5 years and probably the best in terms of outcomes as we raised over USD$400,000 for our Youth Entrepreneurship Initiative www.YSEI.org

The Global Knowledge Partnership’s Event on the Future, the Third Global Knowledge Conference (GK3), was opened on the 11th of December in Kuala Lumpur by Deputy Prime Minister Dato’ Sri Mohd Najib Tun Abdul Razak, and addressed the challenges of sustainable and equitable development through Knowledge and Information and Communications Technology (ICT).

In 2000 we started a unique website called SolvePoverty.com and its sub branch - OrphanIT.com created in 2003. It’s been quite a journey and we’re now about to take it to the next level.

Here’s a bit of background:

2000 - Launched education media company – (See HyperStudy.com)
2000 - Launched SolvePoverty.com fundraiser at Oxford University
2001 - Built 1st Pilot ICT Telecentre school in Philippines
2002 - OrphanIT launched as social outsourcing service.
2003 - Partner with Global eInclusion Movement.
2004 - 100+ web development jobs completed in 12 countries
2006 - OrphanIT helps create Youth Social Entrepreneurship Initiative
2007 - “SolvePoverty.com - 1001 Ways to Help SolvePoverty” relaunch

For over two years now I’ve been involved in the creation and deployment of a fund that helps youth social entrepreneurs get kick started. It’s called YSEI - Youth Social Enterprise Initiative. YSEI is a high-engagement social venture program for emerging young social entrepreneurs in developing countries and there are several ways you can get involved. Through the Emergence Fellowship , YSEI aims to invest in young visionaries who have big ideas and who need crucial startup support to turn their ideas into action.

The start-up support includes:

• Startup financing up to USD$15,000
• Essential development knowledge & tools on social entrepreneurship
