Wednesday, December 13, was a step forward for our project. I personally had the opportunity to get in touch, trhough phone conferencing system, with Mr Peter Armstrong, Innovations Director Oneworld.net, as well as Mr Adam Dalton UK Operations Change Manager, British Council. It has been a great opportunity to be one of the participants in the online event. It is a pitty not everyone could make it, but it has been a chance for those who could make it to express their ideas and give some suggestions in order to ensure the future of our Reach Out project.
I believe other similar events are coming, following what Mr Pukul and Mr Matt have said during the conference. I just hope more participants can get involved. I also hope that our colleagues from UK join us in order to hear the british ideas and the different view they might have concerning the aims and the way how to achieve them.
Last but not least, I take this opportunity to thank Mr Pukul for inviting me, and give send my greetings to Mr Matt who managed to link the participants and the guest throught the phone conference system.
Thank you once again and I look forward to moving to the next stage,
Cheers!
