Part Two: Reasons
for Discussion
[ BACK TO TOP ]
a) Goals:
To reconsider the goals of the community in
this stage, to begin the discussion, proposing the reading of the basic
documentation – doc.Coord and doc.INO - to urge contributions to
the following aspects:
1.Diagnostics and Scenarios: To modify and enrich
the diagnostics. Critique the given scenarios.
2. Fundamental Considerations: To discuss the series of deontological
values on which the project is built which are supposed to be accepted
and to remain in the community.
3. Regional Perspective: To stimulate the identifying of aspects specific
to the region that are important for the use of ICT, specifically the
Internet, in applications with social impact. To encourage the use of
prospection beginning here. It is possible that the discussion will
define some sub-regions like the Caribbean or the Amazonian.
4. Subject Axes: To revising the proposal of high-priority areas in
which it would be necessary to induce social impact by means of the
Internet in order to produce positive changes in the quality of the
life and to support the existent development programs.
The initially proposed topics are:
Education
Health
Democracy, Governability and Civil Participation
Economy and Productivity
Language and Cultures

1 week, from 20th to 26th
February 1999.
Part Three:
Discussion
[ BACK TO TOP ]
a) Goals:
To advance the exchange of ideas on the proposed
topics. The moderation should work so that precise conclusion over the
objectives and desired results of the Meeting in Saman� is reached.
Equally, it should be alert to the contributions that induce adjustments
to the pre-established scheme of the meeting. Rigid time intervals shouldn't
be established, as our experience indicates that this may unnecessarily
force the dynamics of the process. Remember Angela Hernandez's observations:
"It is enough that each topic is well
accepted if it has:
a panorama of ideas,
an idea of the tendencies of consensus and disagreements,
queries and concerns,
reinforcing proposals"
b) Duration:
3 weeks, from 27th February
to 20th March 1999.
Part Four:
