Assunto: Re: [bestbits] Internet Governance in Latin America research project<br>
<br>
Dear Renata,<br>
<br>
it can be a good initiative. But my experience in Latin America show me,<br>
that there are no people to understand, what is "Internet Governance"<br>
and what we have to do to create a InterNet. Maybe, also the most people<br>
on this lists don't understand, what we have to do.<br>
<br>
Connect to the different Ministerios in the different countries. Then<br>
ypu can see and hear, that they don't understand the themes "tele<br>
communication". But they create decisions. And this always based on the<br>
external definitions.<br>
<br>
In my last 4 years in Latin America never i found people with<br>
connections to the international discussions about Internet. Never i<br>
found people with a critical thinking to that, what we give the name<br>
Internet.<br>
<br>
In Latin America we have the organized consumerism. They use only the<br>
technical systems from the external regions. But never they start to<br>
understand the technical bases. And this we find also in NetMundial in<br>
Brazil.<br>
<br>
many greetings, willi<br>
