Botswana Speaks Parliamentary Initiative: A socio-­political approach to eDemocracy initiatives in developing countries

I am member of the Botswana Speaks Parliamentary Initiative Communications Team. I am the Head of Policy Development Unit of Gov2u. I joined Gov2U in 2006 as a communications’ officer in the Unit in ICT for identity and e-citizen privacy. My main focus is awareness raising and communication strategy in the unit. Prior to joining the team, I worked as a marketing manager in the “ATHENS 2004” Organizing Committee for the Olympic Games; and as a marketing and public relations executive at Grant Thornton and AC&C. I hold an MSc in Social and Public Communications from the London School of Economics and Political Science and a Bachelors in Communication, Media and Culture from Athens Panteion University.
