Tricky route to partnership
04.01.2007 The use of ICT in school has the potential not only to improve education, but also to empower people, strengthen governance, open up new market and galvanize the effort to achieve the human development goal for the country. When it comes to computer education in rural primary schools, they still remain the stepchildren of the much-talked-about hi-tech wave that is sweeping the nation.

Many shelters lack proper sanitation facilities.
02.01.2007 Despite a massive outpouring of aid, survivors of the 2004 tsunami still find survival with dignity a difficult task--largely because governments and civil society have returned to bureaucratic lethargy. As 2006 comes to an end, OneWorld South Asia dedicates a special section on its Web site to the gritty survivors.

Tsunamissa tuhoutuneita rakennuksia Sri Lankassa
28.12.2006 "Tsunamin jälkeiseen jälleenrakennukseen saadusta runsaasta avusta huolimatta ihmisarvoinen elämä ei ole katastrofista selvinneille vieläkään itsestäänselvyys. Syynä on hallitusten ja kansalaisyhteiskunnan kangistuminen byrokratian kaavoihin. Selvinneillä itsellään ei ole jälleenrakennuksessa paljon sananvaltaa. He ovat jumiutuneet jokapäiväisestä elämästä selviämiseen", kansalaisjärjestöt muistuttavat kaksi vuotta tsunamin jälkeen.

27.12.2006 Luonnonkatastrofien määrä ja tuhoisuus maapallolla kasvaa, ja ne koituvat yhä useamman ihmisen kohtaloksi. Pelkästään viimeisten 20 vuoden aikana luonnonkatastrofit - tulvat, syklonit, tsunamit, maanjäristykset, maanvyörymät tai tulivuorenpurkaukset - ovat koskettaneet yli neljää miljardia ihmistä.
