Telework & Telecenters
There are a number of ways in which the telework concept can be usefully integrated to the ECFD events. One of these might be to organize Open Houses in the cooperating local telecenters and invite the public to come in, get a feel for how it works, and perhaps even discuss how they might telework some or all of the time.
We hope to find an experienced lead group or groups to help out in this important activity area.
"Work Pad" . . . in-process
As new ECFD projects or activities are brought on line, they will initially be sketched out in rough "Work Pad". These consist in many cases at first of no more than a short statement of intent, perhaps filled out by a first few Web sites and other references. The idea in each case is to get the ball rolling and provide an accessible central place to post our thoughts and clues together in each of these areas, so that others can come in with their ideas and suggestions. Within a few weeks, they should be far enough along in their development to be provided to full kit status.
Teleworking is one way to take some of the pressure off the transport system and the environment. Over the last decade a rich background of experience has been developed, and in a number of places an infrastructure of local telecenters has been created.
The Concept in Brief
Here are some first references to get us going for now on this:

The International Telework Association and Council is a non-profit organization dedicated to promoting the economic, social and environmental benefits of telework.
Hosted at the European Telework Online telework and telecommuting portal site. The site also presents a wide range of information and links on telework/telecommuting, e-commerce and telecooperation.
Links non-profit national telework associations, one per country, around the world.
Telezentren oder Telehäuser unterscheiden sich in vielerlei Hinsicht (Leistungsangebot, Organisation, Rechtsform). Der Betrieb eines Telezentrums steht und fällt mit seinen Mitarbeitern. Gerade in der Gründungsphase ist es ratsam, einen "Fürsprecher" oder eine "Patenfirma" (im Sinne von Leistungsabnehmer) zu gewinnen. Häufig geben die Kommunen dem jungen Unternehmen Rückendeckung. Bilden Sie also in jedem Falle "strategische Allianzen".

Telearbeit tritt in verschiedenen Formen auf. Sie kann z.B. in der Wohnung des Mitarbeiters (heimbasierte Telearbeit) oder auch unterwegs (mobile Telearbeit) erbracht werden. Ebenso setzen manche Arbeitgeber ihre Mitarbeiter bei ihren Kunden ein, wobei die gesamte Ausstattung, mit der diese arbeiten, dem eigenen Arbeitgeber gehört (On-Site-Telearbeit).
