Plan recently partnered with Nokia as part of its Youth Media Program. According to the press release, Nokia and international children’s organisation, Plan, have joined forces to use modern communications technologies in Africa to raise children’s awareness of their rights and opportunities. Nokia has provided an initial donation of one million Euros for 2006.
