The African Uptimist

Clean energy and Internet access for people in Africa: An optimistic view of what works, what's better and where's the action. Lawrence is a programme officer at UNEP's Division of Technology, Industry and Economics. Since 2000, he has worked with non-governmental organizations and other stakeholders to design, implement and evaluate projects aimed at expanding access to energy and IT services in Africa. In recent months, he has began to track the new "people-oriented" Internet technologies and ideas that have appeared on the web--blogs, social networking sites, RSS (really simple syndication), wikis, and the like.
