[WSIS CS-Plenary] Reach Out - British Council initiative linked to WSIS

[Marouen MRAIHI]

Do you have something to say about cultural diversity, access to
information, or creating gender equality through information and
communications technology (ICT)?

Would you like to reach an international audience? If you think you've
got something worth saying, then 'reach out'!

reach out aims to bring young Arabic and English speaking people
together online, and then face-to-face in Tunisia to discuss important
issues on a global scale as part of the World Summit on the
Information Society (WSIS).

How do you get involved?

Register online and join the discussion forums to share your views on
topics such as cultural diversity, access to information and creating
gender equality through ICTs.

Go to Tunis. If you are among the best online contributors you will be
selected to continue your discussions face-to-face in Tunis and video
conference with a group from the UK at Café Informatique
International.  You'll also have the opportunity to meet government
representatives from around the world and share your views with them.

Run your own project. You'll no doubt be inspired to act on what
you've learned at WSIS.  So you'll then have the opportunity with your
new colleagues to identify a project and work together to make it
happen.
