A participative methodology diffusion program was necessary and we decided to produce the video project following this logic. It was not easy.
The absence of the Brazilian Committee in (...) |

Objectives and strategies by Claire LAUNAY, Diego ESCOBAR, 20 April 2005
The Charter of Responsibilities must enable civil society to develop its own capacity for organisational and institutional empowerment and change stereotypes of political action that have existed up until now. Civil society must, in fact, contribute to the creation of a new type of governance by, for instance, reinforcing mechanisms of control over the communication media and over the (...) |

Difficulties by Claire LAUNAY, Diego ESCOBAR, 5 April 2005
The distributed budget.
We find ourselves in Colombia in a situation different from that of the other members of the Committee.

The debate within the Charter’s Steering Committee over voting methods and budget (...) |

We are here, we are still
Abstract
The growing “environmental crisis,” which is a subset of the whole current civilization crisis and is irrevocably interacting with it, can be more descriptively called a “socioenvironmental crisis” in that it has to do essentially with the clash, tension, and inadequacy of human societies in their relations with the rest of the environment, (...) |

Why is the Bolivarian victory a perfect storm? by Ricardo JIMENEZ, 9 February 2007
Even if just for genuine ignorance or interested silence, the fact that the regional oligarchic medias reduce the recent electoral Bolivarian victory with the Bolivarian Republic of Venezuela to a mere success of the President Hugo Chávez in doing "populism", "squandering" the money coming from oil, should bring us to think about it.
The whole text is in Spanish (...) |

Methodology by Carlos LIBERONA, 10 January 2005

The Charter is discussed according to the geographical and sectoral interest, and we try, with these actions, to build up the roots of a network, and, starting from their own background, to help people enlarging their (...) |
