Thru Novel Lenses! New Vision New Perspectives New Ideas New Directions For the New World! Futuring Sustainable Development in the Post Pandemic Planet From Pre School to Policy Making
Happy International Girls in ICT Day What a turbulent journey it has been trying to straddle the spheres of media, culture and education for a gender sensitive world.
The journey took me through the benchmark World Summits on Women and Development, Environment and Development and Infomation Society that shaped directions for the synergies needed for recovery and resuscitation into the Post Pandemic Planet
As the troops pull out, the triumphant shot of ownership, according to The Mighty Sparrow, was heard by the locals .....set against the lament when the BBC pull out ... revisiting this insightful exploration of post colonial mentality ....
The hue and cry from online and others readers, citizen journalists and media and other practitioners in the region over the BBC’s announcement of the forthcoming closure of its Caribbean radio news service is puzzling, and admittedly too, a wee bit amusing. Read More. Go to this link
Now, if only there was a Nobel Prize for Blogging and/or the cannon of commentary on the modern age of which it is a part. Demokrissy leads world opinion where it matters. Demokrissy's trending at the UN, it seems.
In the days that saw the mortal exit of two Nobel Laureates of 2001 in one week, with the death of former UN Secretary General Kofi Annan who received the Nobel Peace Prize and Sir Vidia Naipaul who received the Nobel Prize for Literature in the same year, attention was turned on and tuned to Demokrissy's assessment and presentation of the impact of Nobel Laureate Sir Vidia S. Naipaul on our world. In fact, the - uhh- post mortem - on Sir Vidia's funeral has been trending at the United Nations and to UN readers. Now who needs likes and thumbs up from Facebook, Twitter, Intagram, LinkedIn etc when the reach is more targeted, direct and to the point, eh.
Demokrissy blogging won a BBC/UNESCO Communication Initiative Policy Blogging for New Media and featured in the International Seminar on Media and Agriculture with its blog, 'Growing Journalists from Agriculturalists' and short film, "Caribbean Media and Agriculture - A Marriage of Necessity'.
Kidding aside, how humbled I feel to have been within the ambit of some of the world's leading minds of our time.
