[Iyf-ct] Amandla News Diary?

[pvh at webbedfeet.co.za]

This sounds like something worth contributing to:


Want to promote an event, perspective or issue engaging community media?

The Alternative Information Development Centre (AIDC) is working in
partnership with the National Community Radio forum (NCRF) to produce a
quarterly Amandla! News Diary. The Diary aims to support community media
projects in South Africa to set a progressive news agenda and plan for
their current affairs programing/ editorial - supporting them to develop a
practice of 'peoples media' rather than aping the commercial and public
media (following their stories, angles, and sources).

The Diary will contain a calendar of events and commemorations as well as
contact detail of relevant sources and will be printed as a poster and
sent to all community radio stations (an other media) to display in their
newsrooms every 3 months.

Please support this initiative by sending through a list of
events/commemorations you think should be covered by community media
during July, August, and September 2009. Also send the names,
designations, and contact details of relevant
comrades/spokespeople/sources that can speak to issues the events
highlight. Your events/spokespeople should reach mark at aidc.org.za no later
than 12 June.

Please share with relevant friends.

I look forward to your contributions.

Amandla!
Mark
