style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:Arial'>Then perhaps a definition of a
Telecentre needs to map out the functions these human
resources perform. There are also functions that are required for
useful information exchange to take place, that may not be strictly associated
with the telecentre. These include awareness raising, training, mobilisation of
the stakeholders all along the information "chain" including the
"knowledge centres" (in a country like ours, CRM is not widely
practiced<span class=GramE>....</span>the central institutions are often the
worst at communication). ICT strategy building is important, too. In
fact it is difficult to see where to demarkate a telecentre, looking at it from
the "information flow" point of view.</span></font><o:p></o:p></p>

<p class=MsoNormal style='margin-left:35.4pt'><font size=2 face=Arial><span
style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:Arial'>As a simple example, to allow rural
people to obtain legal advice by email, it was not as simple and notifying them
of the (say) Public Solicitor's email address. We had to train (remotely) the
rural ICT operators to publicise it and raise awareness, hold meetings with the
Public Solicitor and other stakeholders and discuss the procedures required and
other practicalities, and above all get everyone on board. (now it
works marvellously). Information doesn't just flow - it needs to be driven
by the knowledge owners as much as their "customers" or
"clients". </span></font><o:p></o:p></p>
