![]() PWDs learn to use the computer at the telecenter in Club Bellvitge in Spain During last month’s telecentre.org Community Facilitators Meeting in Barcelona, Spain, we had the opportunity to visit the telecenter housed at Club Infantil i Juvenil Bellvitge, one of the social inclusion facilities being managed by Fundación Esplai. Said telecenter is under the government telecenter network in Cataluña called Red Omnia, and is actually one of the first centers established under the network. “In a day, we cater to about twenty to thirty persons with disabilities“, shares Cristina, the telecenter manager. “We teach them how to use the computer and introduce them to Web 2.0, blogs, games and other interactive features of the web.”
