Dear all I know two projects that have been addressing the issue of homeless and making possible their access and use of internet: In France, the project "internet de rues", have a look at: http://www.internetderue.net/-Publics-eloignes-.html Contact the coordinators so they can explain you the initiatives they developped... Besides, the NGO Crisis in UK has been doing some actions regarding the use of ICT by homeless, more oriented towards digital storytelling, http://www.crisis.org.uk/ I found this issue very interesting, please spread your paper once it is finished, Good luck Alexandra -----Original Message----- From: air-l-bounces@listserv.aoir.org [mailto:air-l-bounces@listserv.aoir.org] On Behalf Of Jessie Daniels Sent: Thursday, February 19, 2009 4:45 AM To: air-l@listserv.aoir.org; jjm4114@yahoo.com Subject: Re: [Air-L] internet and homelessness Yes, seconding Jeff's recommendation.

Dear all,
I am looking for some ideas/papers/references about a very specific social context of the Internet. Is there any possible link between the Internet and homelessness?
Thanks in advance for any comment.
