(Dear Renuka,
I am writing to you to seek your support for a capacity building program being organized by Sarva Shiksha Abhiyaana(SSA), Karnataka.
SSA is organizing a 4 day (Oct 5 - Oct 8) GNU/Linux training program for the faculty of all District Institutes of Education and Training(DIET) in Karnataka . This will be in the SSA premises in Nrupathunga Road, Bangalore.These faculty can then train government school teachers in their districts on GNU/Linux and the teachers will in turn train the students.
A consortium of NGOs are working to support the program by providing volunteers and trainers for the program.
Request you also to please see if you can support us in getting trainers/volunteers for the program. It will be really great if you can do so.
Thanks, Vinay.
