Staying Connected – Social tools we can use to foster closer relations during the epidemic.

Video Conferencing makes keeping in touch so much more personal! 

 

Screenshot_of_ICQAs a registered Online Centre Network  organisation with the Good Things Foundation we have access to resources to help those on the digital periphery to take control over their digital footprint. To help in this many use Video Conferencing as well as the likes of Skype and such as ICQ ( What is icq video calls & chat? The ICQ app is a messenger app that can be used for instant messaging, calling and video chatting. User can make free international calling, send animated stickers, and group chat with friends. This app is available for download in both the App Store and the Google Play Store). All of our volunteer Online Chum Mentors have access to either or of these tools and, therefore, we are encouraging those we support to try their hand at using them for staying in touch.  Furthermore, they allow several people to interact together, although this is not what we are promoting except amongst our volunteers.
