For a number of reasons, we had >> to cancel that meeting, and that`s why you have not been hearing from >> us on agenda and program. But, since lots of people from our Arab >> community had, at that time, submitted workshop proposals to join the >> meeting, I thought it would have been a pity to waste all this work. >> Now I can finally announce that we are re-scheduling the meeting in >> Tunis from 30rd of June till 2nd of July. This has been possible >> thanks to Nawaat, who kindly agreed to take care of all the logistics >> and the organization in Tunis, and to Al Jazeera, who is sponsoring >> the event. >> The event formula is exactly the same that was discussed in the 9th >> March email: participation to the meeting is open, upon presentation >> of a workshop proposal, to all the Arab world members. The idea is to >> participate not in a passive way, but by giving back to the others in >> the community and particularly to the Tunisian community who has been >> less hooked up to the regional one. The only participants who wont be >> giving workshops are those whose countries dont have a huge CC >> community yet and where have been difficult to travel for visa or >> political issues (i.e. Palestine, Iraq) and the official affiliates >> who are already doing legal and outreach work. Yet, I have to say that >> the majority of countries where CC communities are well established >> have, since the very first call on 9th March, responded >> enthusiastically to the meeting idea and have sent really cool >> workshop proposals. >> So far, just to recap, we have workshop proposals coming from mixed >> teams in the following countries and disciplines: >> Lebanon, Syria, Jordan, Egypt, Morocco, Tunisia, UAE, Qatar >> open education, law, visual arts, entrepreneurship, music, citizen >> journalism, social media. >> For those who are interested, I can send the agenda and also I hope we >> will be soon able to post on CC Arabic website (any volunteer to help >> with the regional site?unfortunately, due to the contingency in the >> Region the website is not updated but if anybody would like to help >> that would be great). >> We have budget for a total of 30 participants, and still some free >> places to give up since some people, who originally proposed workshops >> for Erbil, cant make it to Tunis. >> I strongly invite people who are interested to lead a workshop in an >> area that is not covered yet to contact me asap. Also, people coming >> from countries where CC communities are not rooted yet, pls do contact >> me if you are interested in joining. Since the meeting is very soon I >> invite you to express your interest immediately and to propose >> workshops not after next Friday 11 June (please follow the model that >> everybody else followed as per my email of 22nd March to this list). >> Also, since we are going to host a final concert the last day, >> inshallah, we are particularly interested in reaching out to musicians >> from different genres and countries who are interested in open music >> and remixing (either that have already released their music under CC >> or willing to). We hope to make soon something out of this >> performance, inshallah >> Sorry for the late notice but pls note that participants who have >> already submitted proposals for Erbil had to be counted and confirmed >> before re-opening the call. >> Hope now more people can join inshallah >> Please let me know asap and do send proposals before 11 June >> salamaat >> dona >> >> -- >> لقد تلقيت هذه الرسالة لأنك مشترك في المجموعة "CC Arab World المشاع >> الإبداعي" من مجموعات Google. >> للنشر في هذه المجموعة، أرسل بريدًا إلكترونيًا إلى >> [email protected] >> لإلغاء اشتراكك في هذه المجموعة، أرسل رسالة إلكترونية إلى >> [email protected]. >> للحصول على مزيد من الخيارات، يمكنك الانتقال إلى هذه المجموعة على العنوان >> http://groups.google.com/group/cc-arab-world?hl=ar. >> >> > > > -- > عبد المنعم كوكة > Abdelmonam Kouka > http://sabily-guru.blogspot.com/ > http://geek-tounsi.blogspot.com/ > -- لقد تلقيت هذه الرسالة لأنك مشترك في المجموعة "CC Arab World المشاع الإبداعي" من مجموعات Google. للنشر في هذه المجموعة، أرسل بريدًا إلكترونيًا إلى [email protected] لإلغاء اشتراكك في هذه المجموعة، أرسل رسالة إلكترونية إلى [email protected]. للحصول على مزيد من الخيارات، يمكنك الانتقال إلى هذه المجموعة على العنوان http://groups.google.com/group/cc-arab-world?hl=ar.
