Re: ENG: NEXT IC MEETING IN DAKAR 09 TO 12 NOVEMBER

from "Sphinx" on Oct 04, 2010 05:02 PM
Hi Hélio,

We are organizing media skills training activities around the Dakar forum.
The trainings will go for two weeks prior to the forum; and the skills
acquired will be used to provide media cover of the forum. We do have two
people down in Dakar working with us in this project, or in fact three
persons.

Can they at least attend the Social Movements Assembly? rather my question
is what is the process for us to get our delegates to attend these
meetings.
Thanks
