Certiport Partners with Four Worlds International Institute to Link Indigenous People throughout the Globe at PATHWAYS HAWAII
FWII Indigenous Summit seeks to establish relationships "to unify the human family"
Salt Lake City — August 02, 2008
Certiport today joined world leaders in education, health, economic and information technology that comprise Four Worlds International Institute (FWII) to discuss ways in which information and communications technology (ICT) tools and learning can be used to connect indigenous people throughout the world. The roundtable discussion broadcasted earlier today via a webinar hosted from Certiport PATHWAYS™ HAWAII International Conference provided a forum for indigenous leaders to add their voices to the development of upcoming FWII initiatives.
"Technology is a wonderful vehicle to link indigenous people," said Chief Phil Lane, Jr., FWII visionary and chairman. "Now it is time to bring our communities to the technology to work with and fashion it."
FWII is working to develop a program that offers educational opportunity, life skills and digital learning using the global networking initiative named "IndigeNet." To learn more, go to fwii.net
