[GTALUG] [offtopic] Global telenetworking

[Brent Kimberley]

‎Hi Evan.
‎Why not get more camp involvement?

I think the telenetworking initiative may be more successful if the camp is involved, drives, and  buys-into the entire life cycle especially the front-end  (e.g. positioning, marketing, sales, presentations, music, speeches, videos, etc.)

Ie Raw camp led initiatives may reach people in a way that polished initiatives can not reach people .

If timed properly (following housing, food, water, sewage, medical, internal governance, mail) such initiatives might reduce internal crime, vandalism, ‎conflict, etc and provide the entire camp with opportunities and hope.

Greetings from the
​GTALUG ​
Geneva bureau.
​
(The "G" does stand for "greater", doesn't it?)​


I have a question deriving from my current task at hand, and I'm wondering
if anyone here can help.

Does anyone have any information, lists, research, etc on what companies
hire or contract teleworkers (ie, people not required to be physically
present at the office to do the work)?

This is different from telecommuting, where you have a local job but can
work from home. I mean companies that are into hiring software developers,
customer service reps, etc from other countries. (in my context, I'm
specifically looking for those willing to hire talented people working out
of refugee camps who are, for various reasons, bound to their current
locations.)

Any help at all, directly or to pointers, is appreciated. Apologies to
those who realize this isn't Linux specific.

Thanks!
