Thank you, Marcela.  I'm sorry we didn't get to the AWID Forum agenda  item.  
I did forward it to next month's agenda.  Ana and I discussed  this many 
months ago. As a matter of fact, it was right before the deadline,  which came 
early this year---the 15th of January, something like this.  We  were both 
really, really busy and were not able to submit a proposal for a  meeting time and 
space.  We therefore let it go. I think we have to look  hard at who will be 
there, who can organize an event within the AWID Forum, if  at all.  I know it 
is going to be quite an event (Í've been to the last  2).  They also have 
selected all the requests for events.  They had  over 1000 proposals for much fewer 
number of events.  So, if there's a  creative way to do this, I welcome it.  
People can think about it and we  can discuss online and/or at the next 
meeting.
 
Warm regards,
Rosa

Dear  all  
>From November 14-17, 2008, at the Cape Town International  Convention Center,
up to 1,500 women's rights leaders and activists from  around the world will
converge on Cape Town, South Africa at the 11th AWID  International Forum to
discuss the power of movements.

Goals and  Objectives
The Forum creates a space for different actors and activists,  from all around
the world to come together to discuss a broad range of  fundamental subjects
and challenges that affect the work of women's  advocates, regardless of what
issues or regions they focus on. 
The  forum aims to
- Create an effective space for women's movements around the  world to
strategize, be self-critical, renew, re-energize and develop  innovative
solutions and ways forward 
- To make evident inter-linkages  between sectors and issues in building
strategic alliances and to put new  issues on the development and women's
rights agenda 
- To develop new,  more holistic and sustainable solutions to advance women's
rights at all  levels 
- To build practical skills through hands-on workshops  


As it was not posible to discuss the FTF  interet in  participating in this
important Forum, I suggest that all of you read more  about the scope and
content of the Forum at   http://www.awid.org/forum08/index.html and discuss
the issue  during  our next tele conference 

best regards
Marcela
