13. Informazioni aggiuntive

Ostacoli:

THE MAIN BARRIER STILL REMAINS THE LACK OF ANY SUPPORT IN MY OWN COUNTRY. EVEN THE PROJECT PROVED ITSELF SUCCESSFUL FROM ITS VERY BEGINNING, I COULDN’T FIND ANY REAL HELP, INCLUDING FINANCIAL FUNDING TO COVER PROJECT’S COSTS. NOTHING BUT CONGRATULATIONS… BUT THESE COULD NOT HELP THE WKS E-BOOK PROJECT RUNNING ACTIVITIES, NOR ITS FURTHER DEVELOPMENT AT ALL.

Soluzioni:

AS AUTHOR AND PROJECT MENTOR, I AM VERY DETERMINED TO ASK FOR INTERNATIONAL ASSISTANCE IN ORDER TO KEEP THE WKS E-BOOK PROJECT RUNNING AND ALLWAYS OPEN TO ALL THE PEOPLE WHO DO NEED A PLACE AND SPACE TO EXPRESS THEIR CREATIVITY. THEREFORE I AM READY TO ACCEPT ANY RELIABLE OFFER FROM ANY INTERNATIONAL INSTITUTION, ORGANIZATION ETC. INTERESTED IN SUPPORTING THE PROJECT, AND TO RELOCATE IF NECESSARY, IN ORDER TO PUT ALL MY SKILLS AND WORKING EXPERIENCE INTO THE SERVICE OF PEOPLE WHO ALREADY PROVED THEY NEED THE WORLD …OF WORLD KIDS STORIES (WKS) E-BOOK

Future plans and wish list:

THE WKS CONCEPT , FOR NOW PUBLISHED ONLY AS AN E-BOOK, COULD BE EXTENDED INTO A MULTIMEDIA , SEE AUDIO (IPOD) AND VIDEO MIXED SECTIONS AND CONTENTS. THAT IS TO WORK AS A SOCIAL INTERACTIVE ENVIRONMENT, FULLY PROMOTED AND ACCESSIBLE BY COMBINING THE WWW AND 3G TECHNOLOGY WORLDWIDE NETWORKS COVER AREAS AND FACILITIES.
