Welcome to click4hp! A new list located in Canada to discuss Health Promotion. As one of the listserv facilitators I wish to extend greetings to all those who have subscribed. Please take a few minutes to introduce yourself to others in this shared environment. I am a coordinator of a large health promotion project in downtown Toronto called Growing Up Healty Downtown (GUHD). It is an eight agency collaborative project with the goal of improving health outcomes for young children funded by Health Canada. To coordinate the project we created a virtual workplace and put all the people working on it on the internet. Over the last eighteen months I have aquired the skills of a computer conference facilitator and have since supported many others to begin using computer mediated communication (CMC). I meet regularly with groups interested in understanding how to begin to incorporate CMC in their work without seeing it as an add on. Understanding how CMC transforms the way we work is a priority for me. On the lighter side I enjoy making a break for the north any time I get the chance. Canoeing and cross country skiing are my passions and I love to cook! Welcome! Liz Rykert (416) 927-8500 <[log in to unmask]>
