Invitation

Pune-Bremen Citizen’s Forum invites you to the launch of its new website

Internet technology for partnerships between Pune and Bremen/Germany

Pune maintains friendly relations and partnerships with the city of Bremen in Germany for nearly thirty years. A group of committed citizens in both the cities would like to strengthen this partnership by establishing a network between NGO’s from both the cities.

With the generous help of software company Neeti Solutions a website has been created to facilitate exchange of information across borders. NGO’s from both cities can use the website to find partners, coordinate for events and announce their activities. The website also encourages direct people-to-people contact through a billboard, a blog and a photo-gallery.

It is available at:  http://www.punebremen.org

You are cordially invited to witness the launch of this new communication tool. We will establish a link with partners in Bremen to inaugurate the new facility.
