I want just to let you know about one of the projects I'm linked to on the framework of the WSIS. This is the descriptive text Summarizing its aims.

Do you have something to say about cultural diversity, access to information, or creating gender equality through information and communications technology (ICT)?

Would you like to reach an international audience? If you think you've got something worth saying, then 'reach out'!

reach out aims to bring young Arabic and English speaking people together online, and then face-to-face in Tunisia to discuss important issues on a global scale as part of the World Summit on the Information Society (WSIS).

How do you get involved?

Register online and join the discussion forums to share your views on topics such as cultural diversity, access to information and creating gender equality through ICTs.

Go to Tunis. If you are among the best online contributors you will be selected to continue your discussions face-to-face in Tunis and video conference with a group from the UK at Café Informatique International. You'll also have the opportunity to meet government representatives from around the world and share your views with them.

Run your own project. You'll no doubt be inspired to act on what you've learned at WSIS. So you'll then have the opportunity with your new colleagues to identify a project and work together to make it happen.

Interested? Then register at: http://www.britishcouncil.org/reachout/
