APC Annual Report 2007 – Building and strengthening networks for 
accessible, affordable, equal access to the internet

MONTEVIDEO, URUGUAY -- In existence as a virtual community since 1990, 
APC’s leitmotif is building and strengthening online networks for social 
change. The Association for Progressive Communications invites you to 
read our 2007 annual report.

It describes the challenges encountered building networks to influence 
international internet policy so that more people have reliable and 
affordable access to the internet, networks of technicians who are 
taking wireless to parts of Latin America where there’s no internet, and 
networks of women concerned about keeping the internet safe but not 
censored.

As usual the report features stories and pictures from the members of 
the APC network on five continents, including:

-ALTERNATIVES, Canada: First independent study on internet 
infrastructure in Africa’s third largest nation
-BYTES FOR ALL, South Asia: Pakistan’s ICT policy in the spotlight
-ITEM, Uruguay: Blogging on the impact of multilateral finance institutions
-UNGANA-AFRIKA, South Africa: Connecting rural paralegal advice offices
-ZAMIRNET, Croatia: Making e-government accessible
