Re: [CNSIG-Council] URGENT!! FEW OURS LEFT. CNSIG - 2020 activity plan

by Jesica

ENGLISH Sarbani has a problem with the list, meanwhile I share with you her email... Also, Sarbani and Sol Luca de Tena (she is not available for sending mails for personal reasons) have aproved the document (by chat), and they confirmed their assistance to the webinar on July 28th. We can´t apply for chapter&sigs ISOC grants, because we don´t have a legal entity nor bank account... I will share with ISOC the activity plan as it is, we have no more time. Then, we can check if we want/need to do something different. But this burocracy is urgent... Cheers! ------------------------------------- SPANISH Sarbani tiene un problema con la lista de correos, mientras tanto... les comparto su mail. También, Sarbani y Sol Luca de Tena (quien no puede enviar correos por razones personales) aprueban el documento (lo hemos conversado por chat), y ambas han confirmado que asistirán al webinar del 28 de julio. Nosotros no podemos aplicar a los grants de ISOC para chapters y sigs porque no tenemos entidad legal ni cuenta bancaria. Compartiré con ISOC el plan de actividades como está en el pad ahora, ya que no nos queda más tiempo. Luego, podemos confirmar si queremos o necesitamos hacer algo diferente, pero este trámite es urgente... Saludos!

Date: Tuesday, July 28, 2020 Time: 11:00 a.m. to 1:00 p.m. UTC Topics: * State of our organizations and community networks. * Current needs and problems. * Strategies for promoting community networks. * Actions on regulatory incidence in our countries. * Community networks and public policies. More details will be published soon. ------------------------------------------------- Reunión virtual de Redes Comunitarias Presentación y debate entre representantes de redes comunitarias y organizaciones promotoras de redes comunitarias.

Más detalles serán publicados pronto. -------- Messaggio Inoltrato -------- Oggetto: URGENT blog entry TODAY!!! Data: Fri, 26 Jun 2020 21:38:35 -0300 Mittente: Jesica <giudicejesica(a)altermundi.net> A: CNSIG Council <council(a)lists.cnsig.info> English (Español abajo) --------------------- Dears, there is an urgent need to add a blog post on cnsig.info, referring to an activity of this year. Finally ISOC were able to express clearly that this was what they were expecting, however, I cannot spend the day publishing something that has already happened. I propose to you to take the opportunity to hold a virtual meeting to discuss what we are in, what we need, what strategies we envision for the promotion and sustainability of community networks. To say a date, I propose Tuesday July 28, 2020, 11UTC. Any other proposal that can be followed in 24 hours? Do you want to carry out this meeting, even if some other proposal comes up? By publishing the projection of this meeting, I think it is enough for ISOC's demands. --------------- Español Queridos, es urgente agregar una entrada de blog en cnsig.info, con referencia a una actividad de este año. Recién pudieron de ISOC expresar claramente que esto era lo que estaban esperando, sin embargo, no puedo dedicarme el día a publicar algo que ya haya sucedido. Les propongo aprovechar la oportunidad para realizar una reunión virtual para contarnos en qué estamos, qué necesitamos, qué estrategias visualizamos para la promoción y sostenibilidad de las redes comunitarias. Por decir una fecha, propongo el martes 28 de julio de 2020, 11UTC. Alguna otra propuesta que le puedan dar curso en 24hs? Les parece si llevamos adelante esta reunión, sea la única propuesta o así surja alguna otra? Con publicar la proyección de esta reunión, creo que es suficiente para las exigencias de ISOC.
