Hello everyone,
I’m Marcelo Blanco and work in Article 19 Brazil in digital rights area. We are currently developing a project on community networks along with ANID ( National Association for Digital Inclusion) and Instituto Bem Estar Brasil. We just published a booklet that serves as a guide to brazilian communities who desire to build a community ISP. We had a session approved on Internet Freedom Festival to occur in March in Valencia, Spain. The idea of this activity is to present our work with the guide in the first part and then, give a practical demonstration of how an internet provider works. However, Rodrigo Troian, our technical expert, won't be able to go. He would be responsible for the whole second part. I was wondering if any of you guys will be at IFF and is capable of doing such a presentation, describing the equipments functions and the building process of a network.

Best wishes,
Marcelo Blanco
Hi,
One of the things we agreed with Global Voices was for them to retweet
and translate our social media content.
For that, we need to have a list of social accounts for them to follow
and be able to share our content in different countries.
It would be great for everyone to share accounts in this pad:
http://pad.codigosur.org/dc3_social_accounts
Please add also every organization you already know are talking about
community networks but still they are not part of DC3.
Regards,
Hi everybody!
As you may have read, Global Voices (GV) have agreed to promote our
news articles through their networks (and ISOC to distribute the GV's
translated versions through their social networks).
For those that want to participate, I need you to send me two things:
* Most recent articles were your networks appeared. These articles have
to have clearance to be reedited and translated. The easiest way to do
this is to license the articles with a permisive license (like CC-BY-SA
or CC-BY-NC).
* To handle some means of communication for journalists to get in touch
with you so they can interview you and publish articles about us.
There is something that we haven't talked about, but I don't see that
this would be hard to get from them...
If we need something to get published, some important news that needs
to be shared, to be able to ask them to do it with us.
Will work on this.
Regards,
These might better explain some of what I've been trying to say and why
starting with the radios isn't the way to understand connectivity. These are
drafts so I would appreciated feedback and aren't ready for prime time
sharing beyond this list.

Hi all,
There have been many comments on the Declaration over the past weeks
here is the latest version https://pad.codigosur.org/GuadalajaraDeclaration
Please take some time to read it and share any further comments.
Tomorrow, during the call, it would be good to discuss if we want to include point 4 (Policy Affecting Connectivity and Community Networks) in the Declaration or leave it to a further document.
Tomorro,after the call, I will upload a consolidated version so that we could try to have a finalised text by the end of the month.
All the best
Luca
Thought that might be of interest for some people in this list...

Estimados miembros de RedLatam,
ARTICULO 19 Brasil está contenta de compartir con ustedes publicación:
“Como Montar e Regularizar um Provedor Comunitário”. El objetivo
desta publicación es impulsionar la implementación de proveedores de
internet comunitários. El texto está dividido en dos grandes partes:
una se refiere a las condiciones legales para el establecimiento de un
proveedor en Brasil y la otra es una parte técnica que explica paso
por paso las posibilidades de como construir un proveedor en una
comunidad. ARTICULO 19 Brasil pretende extender el concepto de
proveedores comunitario con la distribuición de la publicación y con
workshops que seran realizados en 2017. La publicación está em
portugués, pero la compartimos por la facilidad lectura que tenemos
nosotros que hablamos idiomas latinos. Puedes descargar la publicación
completa aquí: www.bit.ly/guiaprovedores
Un gran abrazo,
Laura Tresca.

Subject: [DC] 2016 issue survey results and suggestion for 2017
Sent by: "DC" <dc-bounces(a)intgovforum.org>
------------------------------
Today is one month after the IGF, and I have just collected the results
from the issue surveys which were held open until now. These are attached
as CSV spreadsheets. If any DC would like their results in graphical
format instead, please let me know and I can do this for you.
Despite better efforts at publicising the surveys and encouraging people to
complete them, the participation rate was still very low, indicating that
more work is required. The most responses to any survey was 25, for
"Connecting the Unconnected". The least, perhaps surprisingly, was for
"Internet Rights and Principles", with only 4. Most of the other DCs had
around 10 responses. These do not include the paper surveys, for which the
response rate was even more dismal (averaging less than 1), and which I
haven't even bothered reporting.
Factors that may have produced such a low response rate is that there was
no link to the surveys on the front page of the IGF website during the IGF
week or following, and that there was no email about the survey sent to all
IGF participants. On the other hand the link was tweeted from the official
IGF Twitter account, and the placement of our booth in the IGF Village was
quite good. So I would have expected a better response rate from the
outreach efforts that were taken.
Recommendations that I made in a previous email to this list (excuse the
repetition) were:
- We could ask people to do the surveys as part of IGF online
registration process
- We must have a permanent link to the survey on the IGF website - the
link is very hard to find right now
- We could somehow "gamify" the survey by awarding points or stickers,
or making it part of an IGF quest
- We should place a word limit on questions - some were too lengthy this
year
- We should also strictly enforce the five question limit - one DC had
ten questions this year
- There seemed to be some confusion about the shifts at the booth, with
some slots unattended, and others where there were more people than
expected
- Rather than a static booth which most people don't bother visiting, we
could have volunteers roving around with iPads to get responses to the
surveys (like the Imagining the Internet people did with their camera)
But a more fundamental rethink of the approach may be required. In my
view, there is a good match between the DCs' needs, and the Deliberative
Polling work that Stanford University has piloted in the last two IGFs.
This is because we have the material for people to deliberate on, but we
don't have an effective method to foster broad deliberation and feedback.
The Deliberative Polling team has the opposite problem: they have a method,
but they don't have ready-made materials to employ it on. Merging these
two projects seems to me like a perfect match.
If we were to do this, then in tandem, we should seek support from a donor
or foundation to fund this work, and should also secure the MAG's
commitment to properly integrate this work into the IGF as a mainstream,
supported, resourced and promoted IGF activity. (This in turn will require
that we have a strong advocate within the MAG.)
It will require a lot of additional effort and commitment, but clearly the
current approach is not working, so I think we have to do something. Is
anyone else on board with these ambitious plans for 2017?
