Abstract
It is widely appreciated that information and communication technology can provide new and interesting channels for civic, political and community involvement. In this chapter we outline our research into participatory content creation programs supported by ICT-equipped telecentres. We examine how to equip these communities to speak with their own voices on advocacy, poverty reduction and social change.
