Descrizione del progetto

Description Frase (max. 500 characters): 

THE TWICKENHAM TRIBUNE IS AN OFFSHOOT OF WORLD INFOZONE WHICH HAS BEEN A FINALIST IN THE GJC IN PREVIOUS YEARS. WORLD INFOZONE IS ABOUT GLOBAL COMMUNICATION. THE TWICKENHAM TRIBUNE IS ABOUT LOCAL COMMUNICATION WHICH ALSO REACHES OUT TO THE WORLD VIA WORLD INFOZONE. THE TRIBUNE IS A LOCAL ONLINE NEWSPAPER WHICH FILLS A NEED FOR NEWS IN OUR AREA BUT WE HAVE LINKS AND CORRESPONDENCE/VISITS WITH THOSE IN OTHER COUNTRIES, ETC WHO HAVE LINKS IN OUR AREA: THE US, BELGIUM, FRANCE, GIBRALTAR. READERS ARE LOCAL BUT ALSO WE HAVE A READERSHIP AROUND THE WORLD. COUNTRY INFORMATION IS PROVIDED IN ARTICLES ABOUT FOOD, HISTORY, NEWS AND WE ALSO HAVE EMBEDDED VIDEO FROM MANY COUNTRIES.

Project Summary (max. 2000 characters): 

THE IDEA DEVELOPED BECAUSE OF A NEED FOR LOCAL NEWS BY LOCAL PEOPLE IN THE TWICKENHAM PARLIAMENTARY CONSTITUENCY (REPRESENTED IN THE UK PARLIAMENT BY SIR VINCENT CABLE, THE NATIONAL LEADER OF THE LIBERAL DEMOCRATS). IT WAS OBVIOUS FROM THE START THAT AS A WORLD INFOZONE PROJECT COUNTRY INFORMATION AND LINKS AROUND THE WORLD WOULD FORM PART OF THE ONLINE NEWSPAPER. WE HAVE CORRESPONDENTS, CONNECTIONS AND READERS FROM A NUMBER OF COUNTRIES.
