Thanks so much Ceris and Christina, these are really great info. Ceris said:

Not sure how relevant this is to the situation in Uganda etc but one thing that I notice here in Wales is how little awareness there is of free and open source software

If this is so in Wales , then it's just terrible in a third world country like Uganda where even the use of the internet in the first place is so minimal. This would really be a very good starting point for us

Though I have not used some of these softwares and not aware if they are even available here, I will get some of the people I have been working with to check all these out. They sound to be very useful especially given the situation that here the connections are often very slow.

Christina, the idea of crafting an online report and stories is really very good, because over the few years of my experience, the most difficult part of it was getting people write stories and reports on line. It really sounded very difficult for them , so if this time we get it covered it may make it more comfortable for them.

Already I am seeing about five topics up for imparting and each may take a whole day to make them understand better. I feel I might have underestimated the days to just seven, now I see that we may need even more than ten days to have all these this covered.
