Intercontinental Virtual Youth Camp PIeter Baets - 12.11.2003 14:47
De nieuwe site van het Intercontinentaal Jongeren Kamp in Mumbai is eindelijk online! Bij deze willen we het Virtueel Jongeren Kamp aankondigen. Meer informatie in het engels. Wil je nog meer informatie in het Nederlands: Pieter Baets, registratieafdeling, IYC office, Mumbai: youth.registration@wsfindia.org Dear Friends, The new website of the Intercontinental Youth Camp is finally online! With this message we want to introduce to you one of the features we are most proud of, the Intercontinental Virtual Youth Camp. The IVYC (or just the Virtual Camp) can be accessed at
http://www.wsfindia.org/youthforum/forum In our intentions (in our dreams) the Virtual Camp will be a Forum were people can start meeting and share ideas, dreams and knowledge virtually, along the information highways, even before the actual Intercontinental Youth Camp takes place in Mumbai next January. At the moment the Virtual Camp looks slightly empty, but the infrastructure is ready, and some of the groups have already a facilitator, the virtual host of the space, ready to welcome you. How the Virtual Camp looks like: Three categories, or virtual spaces, have been set up so far: The first is the actual Virtual Camp. In that category each Functional Group that is working at the organisation of the Intercontinental Youth Camp 2004 has its own Forum. Here you can meet with the people in charge of the Programme, the Logistics and so on and discuss with them ideas and proposals to make the IYC 2004 an open, democratic, inclusive, participated and successful event. The second category is Thematic Forums: here topics for discussion have been set up as spaces for people to share and create knowledge. We thought of these forums like something that would reproduce the Thematic Tents that you will find in the IYC 2004. At the moment few categories have been set up but more can be added according to your suggestions. One more section is called Movements and Organisations. Here we imagine to create spaces for organisations and movements to moderate and facilitate the discussions on the issues they deal with in their daily struggles. If your organisation or movement is interested in facilitating a space in the Virtual Camp please contact us we will be happy to make this possible. All the mentioned categories will be facilitated in order to avoid misuse of the forums. In our dreams this will be the actual beginning of the Intercontinental Youth Camp 2004. You will be able to join activist and friends from all over the planet and at the same time you will be able to breath that energy and enthusiasm even arriving in Mumbai. At the same time you will be contributing to the process of "making" the actual IYC in terms of structures (with ideas and suggestions), content (with debates and thematic conversations), creativity, and dreams. The Forum is still a young creature but we believe you will contribute to make it a creative and lively space. Please register and become a member of this great community. See you all soon in the Virtual Camp Best Giuseppe (IYC office - Mumbai) For information and suggestions please write to the Intercontinental Youth Camp 2004 office in Mumbai at
