[Bp_localcontent] Infographic on Content Localisation Program from African region

[baya.sylvain at cmnog.cm]

  Hi Dear All,
  Hello Dear Duksh,
Thx for sharing. I've just discovering your great work.
  But about Content Localisation, I think that you are taking the  
issue by the other side. Since the beginning, we have considered that  
we just have to address the concern of adding new content coming from  
a region and which can be first relevant to that region and after  
being digitalised to be GLOBALISED (i.e. Worldly and Widely accessible).
  Your view has addressed a, perhaps forgotten, possibility about  
already digitalised content. By the way, it seems as you are speaking  
about existed digital content that need to be translated prior to be  
more usefull for people of other countries.

But I can also see the Localisation issue as a step after the creation  
and digitalisation of relevant Local Content prior to be archived on  
server and shared online .
  So I want to ask if it's not more accurate to use Open Source  
Solutions to directly translate a content after the creation and  
digitalisation ? For instance, in Cameroon we'll be able to share a  
content coming from the "Bamiléké" ancestral culture with other  
Cameroonians : "Yambassa", "Bantous", "Peuls", "Bamoun", "Bassa'a",  
"Baya", "Douala", ... Important example of application because in  
Cameroon we have 250 languages.

  If I'm not right, please I'm open.

  So, Please, do you have any other information, you can share with  
us, about our, still, pending questions ? :-)
Recalling Stuart's last words; for all us please :
1- Our next task is to identify what's worked well so far when it  
comes to the eventual creation of local content.

2- What is common effective practice, where you come from?

3- Is it possible to see, based on your input, if successful  
approaches have anything in common with each other?

4- Have there been any unintended consequences, positive or negative,  
from the policy interventions that have been used to try to stimulate  
the production of local content in your country?

It's looks as you have more for us. ;-)

Thx and Regards,
--sb.
