Every year on the Thai-Myanmar border eighty nervous young scholars gather for one of the world’s most inspiring graduation ceremonies. As they wait quietly to take the stage, watched by emotional, moist-eyed parents who comprehend the enormity of their achievement more than they will for some years to come, the group of young Karen refugees could be any class, anywhere. But their graduation ceremony, in the sprawling Mae La refugee camp in Thailand, is one of the greatest examples of the triumph of the human spirit you are every likely to hear about. As they accept their certificates, this special group of graduands are a beacon of hope for more than 45,000 of their fellow refugees; a shining example of what can be achieved even by stateless young people who have never known life beyond a refugee camp.Posted on 27/09/2018 by

Transform Conference Silver Sponsors the I.T. Team have a clear vision for this year’s TechSoup Conference, and they’re ready to bring it to life in Auckland this August 15-16. Led by Sue Wilkinson, the I.T. Team were a significant presence at the 2018 TechSoup NZ Conference as delegates - and were so impressed by what they saw that they decided to sponsor Transform 2019. Based in Christchurch, but with a strong network and engagement across New Zealand, the I.T. Team has a strong reputation for delivering reliable, well managed and cost-effective IT services around the country. They offer a great combination of services and community-centred values that Sue feels will resonate with charities and non-profits, and which makes them an ideal sponsor for Transform 2019.Posted on 17/07/2019 by

TechSoup New Zealand Conference delegates will have the opportunity to connect with each other, see the event program, post social media messages and receive conference updates direct to their mobiles devices thanks to the introduction of the #Transform2019nz app. The app, which will be available to all delegates via direct download links the week before the conference, adds to the 2018 experience by bringing an additional interactive element and enhanced engagement with the conference team. It will feature all of the conference speakers, sponsors and session descriptions, and a venue map, meaning delegates have everything they need in the palm of their hand. News of the app comes hot on the tail of the confirmation of the final panel of speakers for Transform 2019 and the announcement that all full price delegates will be entered into the draw for a $900 Lenovo laptop.Posted on 15/07/2019 by
