Situation today
• What we do is
o Not widely known
o Financially not viable / sustainable
o Not taken up
o Un-connected (country/region/continent/global)
• People do not know what is available in their language (people = end-users OR publishers OR politicians OR…)
• We are working in the background (it’s not always easily visible) as it is a service to others.
• We are the enablers but have no enabled / productized / pushed into relevant space
• What we do is not always relevant
