[WSIS CS-Plenary] Some Scholarships available for CSO/NGOs to GK3 (11-13 November 2007)

[CONGO - Philippe Dam]

Dear all, 

 

This is to inform you we have been contacted by the GKP Secretariat today to
announce that small number of last minute funding opportunities will be made
available for CS representatives and NGOs for participating the GK3
Conference organised in Kuala Lumpur (11-13 December). The GKP Secretariat
is requesting that any request or recommendation for funding should be sent
to them no later than this Friday.

 

The theme is Emerging People, Emerging Markets, Emerging Technologies. In
allocating the available fellowship, the GKP is targeting organisations
based in developing or transition countries and having a specific working
expertise in the area of ICT4D.

 

Interested CS organisations and NGOs should send us a request
(wsis at ngocongo.org), before Thursday 15 November (12:00 am, GMT),
indicating:

-          Name of the Civil Society Organisation or NGOs:

-          Country:

-          Name of representative:

-          Gender:

-          E-mail address:

-          Area of expertise and knowledge in ICT4D:

 

Full information about the conference can be obtained from
www.GKPEventsOnTheFuture.org <http://www.gkpeventsonthefuture.org/> . 

We regret the very late deadline and by the fact that this process can not
be made more open, but the funding opportunity was apparently made available
very late and the GKP Secretariat is willing to finalize the process early
next week.

 

Best regards, 

 

Philippe
