Arusha I.T Community</span></b></p><span style="font-size:12pt;font-family:"Times New Roman","serif""> </span><span style="font-size:12pt;font-family:"Times New Roman","serif"">As IT
practitioners it is in all our interests to strengthen our community and
leverage it in different ways including solving local problems. So we are thinking
of having an open workspace in or within town with decent internet connectivity
where we can regularly meet and say build/stuff or invite over a key
presenter for each meet-up who will share something that would be of
interest and help people learn something they would work towards.</span><span style="font-size:12pt;font-family:"Times New Roman","serif""> </span><span style="font-size:12pt;font-family:"Times New Roman","serif""></span>
<p class="" style="margin-bottom:0.0001pt;text-align:justify;line-height:normal"><span style="font-size:12pt;font-family:"Times New Roman","serif"">This
concept is not new to some of us and others have even seen examples of this
sort of idea take root in other regions of the world and have spurred their
communities to great heights of innovative localized solutions to problem they
faced.</span></p>
<p class="" style="margin-bottom:0.0001pt;text-align:justify;line-height:normal"><span style="font-size:12pt;font-family:"Times New Roman","serif"">Naturally
before we can start putting that into motion we should work to strengthen our
community a bit more. As such a place will need some people and funds to be able
to set it up and maintain it. So while we could opt to go looking for grants,
corporate sponsors etc., we should at least try initiating and trying running
one of our own.</span><span style="font-size:12pt;font-family:"Times New Roman","serif""> </span>

<br>For this to happen we need a place that we an regularly meet on an informal level but with access to utilities we enjoy in the workplace that enable one perform better. So reliable power, comfortable space, good internet, books, access to mentors/advisors e,t,c...it should be an academic nor game house or an office environment but a compromise of all these that picks the innovative building aspects of each of them.<br>
<br></div>This place with need support from all these sectors but my thinking is that it will have to be run by young, creative determined and inspired I.T wannabies with big dreams who just need the right environment to show their potential.<br>
