Role of Blogs in the NGO sector

Dear TDN members

Based on our discussion on friday and the future role of e-learning in the NGO sector, I found this article on our community-net newsletter about how blogs as a tool can support our work in marketing our programs, supporting our advocacy role and/or sharing information. I have attached the link of the article for your perusal.
