The World Connectory Project will link **every** place in the world's poorest countries with its own partner-place in one of the world's wealthier countries.

How that link is used will be up to the people living in the places that are linked together. But without putting some basic information about each place online, it will be hard to get started.

If you know no-one in your partner area (that's the place you'll be linked to), you will still be able to contact someone there if you are able to contact the local newspaper or radio station there.

Or it may be people in the rest of the world have already heard of your part of the world because of somewhere famous - or someone famous - who lives there.  That could be a useful link.

Or there may be organisations where you live that already have international links.  It may be easiest to start by building on these links.

**So this is a place for sharing information about your own area's**

 * **main local newspaper**
 * **local radio or TV** 
 * **special places**
 * **worldwide organisations already active in your area**

Or you may just want to make some other comment on this.

Please do: share information and ideas, ask questions, add photos, get other to contribute.  Do whatever you like, provided it's in true Nedster spirit!
