the internet and womens democratic organising (msu)may 2002 usa
The Internet and Women's Democratic Organizing project seeks to facilitate women's social and political activism and regional networking through Internet technologies. Two three-week workshops took place in May 2000 and 2001 with participants attending from the West African countries of Ghana, Senegal, Nigeria, and Mali. This year's workshop is scheduled for May 6-14, 2002. The project aims to:
Familiarize all participants with use of Internet communications for
women's democratic organizing.
Introduce the participants to the history and contemporary context of
American women's democratic organizing and political activism.
Assist each participant to build and maintain a web page or site for her
organization.
Provide the participants with software and technical support so that they
can continue to build on their Internet training after their return.
Encourage participants to establish long-term partnerships of collaboration
and exchange with their fellow workshop participants.
Build concrete and durable partnerships between MSU and the organizations
that the participants represent.
This project is sponsored by Michigan State University, its African Studies
Center and office of Women and International Development, MATRIX: The
Center for the Humane Arts, Letters and Social Sciences Online, the West
African Research Center (WARC) and the Institute for African Democracy
in Dakar, Senegal. Support for the upcoming workshop is provided by Michigan
State University and the US Department of State, Bureau of Educational
and Cultural Affairs with funds from the Education for Development and
Democracy Initiative (EDDI). IWDO is part of the African Internet Collaborations
initiative undertaken by MATRIX and the African Studies Center.
The 2002 Workshop is coordinated by Joy Palmer, Paula Rosinski and Justine Richardson. Dean Rehberger, Associate Director of MATRIX, coordinates the technology instruction. Lisa Fine, professor of history at MSU, organizes the seminars. The three IWDO project directors are: Mark Kornbluh, Director of MATRIX; David Wiley, Director of the African Studies Center; and Anne Ferguson, Director of WID.
