[governance] Online FX event: remote participation

[Anriette Esterhuysen]

Dear All!

As you may know APC is organising an event at the UN Human Rights
Council on Friday, 1-3 pm CET (12am-2pm GMT) with the Swedish Ministry
of Foreign Affairs.

As most of us won't be in Geneva we have set up remote participation, so
everyone of us can join. You will be able to see and hear the event live
as well as posting comments and questions to the panel.

Please see below for more instructions on how to participate.

The event is a part of APC's CONNECT YOUR RIGHTS campaign and will
address freedom of expression on the Internet, including criminalisation
of online expression, blocking and manipulating of internet content,
invasion of privacy and data protection, unlawful surveillance and
limitations on internet access and women's human rights on the internet.

For more information, including speakers, see the attached flyer and
don't hesitate to contact us for further information.

All you need to do is prepare your browser by installing the VLC plugin
(for free) and after that click the link below.

VLC is a plugin for your web browser (Internet Explorer and Mozilla
Firefox) and works on Windows, Mac and Linux computers, just follow the
instructions below:

(to test that you have installed the plugin successfully, click this
link: http://media.lscube.org/view?what=/ls3_tutorial.m4v . You will get
an error message if the plugin is not installed and a blank video screen
if it works)

UBUNTU (which is a great alternative to Windows and Mac, based on Linux)
Ubuntu users can quickly install everything that it is needed typing the
command below in a terminal window:

  sudo apt-get install mozilla-plugin-vlc

Other Linux distributions have their own command, but the idea is the
same, they provide a package for the VLC plugin.

WINDOWS
Windows users must install the VLC plugin using the plugin option in
installer after downloading from (Remember to check the Mozilla and
ActiveX flags inside the install options if prompted)
http://sourceforge.net/projects/vlc/files/1.1.9/win32/vlc-1.1.9-win32.exe/download

MAC
Mac users will have to install the plugin from
http://sourceforge.net/projects/vlc/files/1.0.5/macosx/vlc-plugin-1.0.5-intel.dmg/download
