[Open-access] african open access stories for website

Hi All,

I have just had a Skype call with Irina Kuchna of the EIFL organisation.
They work for access to science and educational material in developing
countries.
She has made a fantastic offer to provide us with interviews of people from
developing countries (Mainly Africa, Asia) for publication on the Website
Whoneedsaccess. She will propose this plan on the general meeting of EIFL
in July. She then thinks of training country representatives of EIFL to do
the interviews in their countries, and give them some incentive like the
best interview will get a prize. Will probably work better than trying to
get interviews through email.
It looks like we can expect first interviews to come our way in sept 2012.

cheers

TOM
