Description
|
For the fifth year
UNESCO convenes a facilitation meeting on Action Line C9
�Media� in its capacity of being the �facilitator�. The
meeting will report on updates of the Action Line outcomes
since last the facilitation meeting and will therefore focus
debates on the specific theme of �Community Media for
Disaster Preparedness�.
Given community media�s
big role in disaster preparedness and reduction, the meeting
will bring speakers from SAKS (Soci�t� d�Animation et de
Communication Sociale) and AMARC (World Association of
Community Radio) to share their experience in Haiti, Chile
and other regions, in order to trigger discussion on how to
build community media and provide vital news and information
to keep citizens informed of the public response to disaster
and to assist in obtaining access to aid and support.
*English & French interpretation will be
made available. |
