About
I'm basically a communication facilitator, specializing in cross-cultural (for both "social" and "national" cultures) communication and in Internet-based communication in the very broad field of global activism.
I am a research facilitator, new to this kind of communication. Thinking globally and acting locally is a dictum that I have resonated with for some time, so I find myself somewhat sceptical of 'global activism'. Nonetheless, cross-cultural communication is crucial if ever we are to get out of the violent isolation we were trapped into by Apartheid in South Africa. I f there is a modest way in which we can begin to explore 'Internet-based communication' to enable us to get out of this isolation, we would be happy to try.
