Mapping telecentres in Bolivia

TICBolivia has taken the initiative to systematize and visually share the location of telecentres, information centres and points of connection throughout Bolivia. TiCBolivia captures, maintains and updates the information on these centres, and puts it at the disposal of the general public through their website. See the mapping of the centres.

• Telecentres: Centers with computers and Internet connection. Either open or closed for the general public. 
• Information centres: Centers with off-line computers.  Either open or closed for the general public. 
• Points of connection:  Points with Internet connection exists and therefore more economic possibilities.

You can search the centres by institute, department and type of centre. The centres that meet the criteria of your search list the number of end users and can also be viewed on a map. The list is interactive. Missing or new centres can easily be added.

The mapping of telecentres, information centres and points of connection has also been performed by the networks of other IICD country programmes. For example, in Tanzania, the telecentres have been mapped through a participatory mapping workshop. Also in Burkina Faso the centres have been mapped and more country programmes will follow to do the same.
