[Rio-GEM] GEM Concept Papers

[cheekay cinco]

Hello, everyone

I hope that all of you have been able to return to your homes safely. I've 
been back in my home for a little more than a week now and I'm still 
catching up with some of the work I've neglected during the meeting as well 
as the follow-up work that we still need to do for GEM.

I am writing about finalising two of the main documents in the GEM website: 
(1) Gender Analysis and (2) ICTs for Social Change. In day 3 of the GEM 
Practitioners Exchange, some of the participants volunteered to help us 
re-write these documents, and I would like to follow up on this. According 
to our list, those who said will help are:

Gender Analysis paper: Vera, Uca, Beatriz, Lucy Torres (aside from these 
women, Dafne also informed me that Susann Rostagnol and two other women 
from TAU would also be helping us)
ICTs for Social Change: Assumpcio, Juliet

I'm sure I missed some names, and I would like to take this opportunity to 
ask for those who would like to help in finalising these documents to 
please volunteer now. By the end of the week, we will be sending the 
current versions of the documents to those who have volunteered so they can 
begin commenting and adding to the documents.

During our GEM Team meeting (which we held after the forum), the team 
agreed that the best way to get feedback and additions to these documents 
is to gather comments and additional text from those who volunteered to 
help, and then to for us to re-write the documents based on what we have 
gathered. We aim to have the documents finalised by 15 July and made 
available on the GEM website.

I would like to thank those who have volunteered during the workshop and 
would like to thank in advance those who will add their names to the list 
of volunteers.

I've asked Dafne to translate this message in Spanish.

That's all for now.
