Hi All –

Some more links for the team from colleagues in Canada.

This data comes from Marita Moll who was very involved with some of this work.

--The site for the community networking alliance in Canada is at tc.ca.

-- Here is a link to a great story book of projects -- about 5 years old now. Led under previous Canadian leadership and called "Community Access Program (CAP)".  Not clear all the links are up.

-- As part of a University of Toronto research project, Marita co-edited a book of research and case studies on community networking in Canada called "Connecting Canadians; Investigations in Community Informatics."

Hi Jane et al,

I think your idea is great. I had the chance to participate in a similar event organized by Steve and Peter in 2014 around ACMDev and GAIA in Berkeley (http://decentralizethis.org/Go_Local!_Workshop) and the energy and knowledge I gathered at that event is still with me. If I can choose I would prefer the event to be before IGF.

By the way, these are the videos from CNs in Africa that I know about, maybe you can add them to your list:
- The BBC dedicated one of their Click Programs to one of the most important Community Netowrks in Africa: Macha Works, in Macha, Zambia: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ei4Inh3W03M
- Video about Tunapandanet, a mesh network in Kibera, Kenya: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vKcdLC48fzo

- We have also created a documentary about Zenzeleni Networks, the CN I'm personally involved in, located in Mankosi, South Africa: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YxTPSWMX26M

All the best,

calros

Hi all,

I believe it is a good idea to have day-long roundtable meetings
(similar to what we had in Bogotá a few months ago). But I would propose
that we consider a more detailed agenda that considers what we have been
doing and the plans that are already in place so we can focus on moving
forward.

During the Bogotá meeting we proposed to use the Wiki to keep track of
projects and initiatives and I did this only partially:

BTW, Ernmanno and Marco, you are more than welcome to join the DC3
mailing list!
