What is the profile of PANTOTO users?

Mostly from the NGO and SME sector. PANTOTO adopters are typically
functional experts who are not computer savvy, but are able to put together
simple web-based applications for information and community management for
their needs.


~~~~Calling for Participation~~~~

information management/documentation/networking with an interest in the
social development sector.

environment where IT resources are inaccessible to the NGO and SME sectors.
