Introduktion av TIG Xpress 
TakingITGlobal launched TIG Xpress-HIV/AIDS on December 1, 2005 at a World AIDS Day Breakfast. TIG-Xpress uses photographic analysis to undertake HIV/AIDS education based on social justice, transnational communication and global solidarity between youth.

The World AIDS Breakfast was a partnership with Business Professional Women of Canada and Voices of Positive Women. It also featured the official launch of the Canadian Blueprint for Action on Women and AIDS.Thank you to everyone that was able to make the World AIDS Breakfast (especially the youth invitees and TIG members).

WSIS, Tunisia: One Great Summit 
TIG had a key role (and a good time!) in creating a youth presence at the World Summit on the Information Society Phase II in Tunisia last month. TIG staff and members were able to raise awareness on issues such as youth empowerment through ICTs, online safety and security, and youth and the digital divide. We were also able to conduct workshops, participate in panels, announce new partnerships, host youth hub visitors, present youth awards and even manage to get coverage in international media. The summit proved to be an excellent team-builder and re-energizer for the work that lies ahead.
Online Safety Theme Celebrated at WSIS 
TIG's Online Safety Day at the World Summit on the Information Society, presented in partnership with Microsoft, brought the issues of online safety and security to the forefront for conference delegates. As with any community, discussion around the future of the Internet as a global community has to focus on maintaining a safe space for the exchange of ideas. To find out more about issues we discussed, from intellectual property to computer security to cyber bullying, visit our featured theme on Online Safety & Security. Klicka här

Globala Galleriets aktuella tävlingar 
Tävling: Globala Galleriets tävling: Rama in din stadEn stad är ett oändligt collage av utrymmen som ständigt förändras och rör sig. Luckor passerar ofta oebmärkta förbi och bildar ett nytt landskap som är suddigt och ur skärpa. Staden lever och andas emellan dessa luckor, relationer mellan platser och personer som även de ofta inte märks. Allting är periferi, satt i fokus endast av vår blick, som medborgare eller resenärer, i och genom en stad. Vår blick är det enda sanna epicentret i en stad. Målet med vår aktuella tävling är att placera din stad i fokus - att bokstavligt talat rama in ett utrymme, en lucka, en plats, en person, ett ämne och människor - med avsikten att fånga ett fragment av det som för dig reflekterar känslan och essensen i en stad. Ditt bidrag kan vara av vilken form som helst (t ex fotografi, tavla, teckning, digital grafisk manipulation). Gå till Galleriet.
