[Ftffacilitationteam] Meetings in Nairobi

[RosaenCasa en aol.com]

Dear colleagues,
 
There is lots of interest, and this is good!  Where are we in terms of  
process?  How many slots are available for funding?  Are we at a point  where we 
will need to apply the criteria we employed for the Toronto  meeting?  I think 
being consistent would be helpful.  
 
Best,
 
Rosa

Dear all,
I have received several indications of interest  to participate at the 
meeting of the FTF and the general GCAP meeting in  Nairobi.
>From the facilitation team Prisca, Luisa and  Josephine were the ones who 
responded (Rosa, Nerea and Marcela had  confirmed earlier their participation).
Besides that, I received several indications of  interest. I am listing them 
below:
 
>From Latin America:
- Adelaida Entenza, from REPEM (She was at the  Beirut meeting and is part of 
the Latin American coalition)
- Magaly Pineda (member of the Latin American  facilitation team)
 
>From Africa:
- Yadi Eribo (I do not know her, and looked up in  internet. She is from an 
organisation called Worldview from The  Gambia)
- Ricardia Dennis (Association of Disabled Women,  Liberia). She wrote a 
strong message complaining about the treatment of  disabled women. They had 
applied to go to the strategic meeting in Toronto but  they did that late, and after 
the places for Africa were covered. 
 
>From Asia/Europe
- Rehana Khilji from Pakistan. She has been  active in the list. She says thou
gh that she cannot go, those are the dates  for her to have a baby!!! She 
wants to know if they can nominate someone from  the head office in Dublin. Her 
organisation is CONCERN Worlwide
 
>From North America
- Betsy Apple, from WEDO, who has been very  active or at least during 2005. 
They do not need funding. 
 
I would very much appreciate comments from the  regions, because that is the 
purpose of having a facilitation team,  that we can get direct information 
from the regions. We need to take an  urgent decision because people need to buy 
their tickets now! And we need to  know if these are women who are involved, 
have contributed, etc. You are the  ones in a position to send this information.
 
I think that by Monday next week we should know  who is going to Nairobi. We 
have some funding and besides the IFT has reserved  three places for the FTF 
so we can try to complement. But we need to take a  decision on who we think 
should attend the FTF evaluation and planning meeting  for 2007. 
 
Nobody is left out, we are all part of the  facilitation team and we need to 
take decisions as a group. So I really  appreciate your feedback. To be able 
to write to the other women with an  answer by Monday, I think it is important 
that you send your comments by  tomorrow or Saturday. 
 
Those of you from the team who have not  confirmed, please let us know by 
Saturday if you are planning to participate.  Next week I also need to work on 
the budget, so please send the costs of  travelling from your home country to 
Nairobi. Remember also that we are  planning to present a workshop at the WSF. 
We must start planning that very  soon. Elizabeth, you were the one in charge 
of coordinating this group, let´s  start with that planning. 
 
Thanks, and I look forward to your answer and  comments.
Warm greetings,
Ana
