amigas,<BR>Chona is our representative at the e-communications team, so I think it <BR>would be great if she can keep us posted on what happens in the area of <BR>communication.<BR>I should say though, before everything, that I hope everyone arrived safe <BR>and in one piece after the long trip!! And that you enjoyed your time in <BR>Montevideo, and above all, that you went back with a feeling of achievement. <BR>I think we had a great meeting. I really enjoyed seeing the coincidences we <BR>had as FTF with regional representatives and the will to work with an agenda <BR>that is political and reflects our concerns. I have the feeling that the FTF <BR>has consolidated itself as a major group within GCAP and that our <BR>contribution is widely recognised. Having a facilitation team has made a big <BR>difference. So thanks to all of you! And let´s work hard this year.<BR>One thing we need to agree on is the media person. That will give us even <BR>higher visibility. Who would
like to do that? The TOR are attached, so you <BR>can have a look and then volunteer!<BR>We have the following distribution of tasks for the time being:<BR>IFT: Ana, and Rosa as alternate<BR>e- communications: Chona<BR>Mobilisation: Rosa (and Lysa?)<BR>Josephine: after the meeting on the 6th, is there a follow-up? Are you <BR>representing us in a regular group? And thanks for representing us!<BR>Media: pending<BR><BR>I suggest we have a teleconference through Skype. How many of you have a <BR>Skype name? If you don´t, you can get it for free, just download Skype.<BR>I think is important so we can plan the coming months.<BR><BR>So, thanks again, and I look forward to your comments,<BR>Ana<BR><BR>Amigas,<BR>les resumo mi mensaje: Chona nos representa en el grupo de comunicaciones, <BR>entonces sugiero que en respuesta al mensaje de Ciara, encargada de <BR>comunicaciones y prensa, sea Chona la que nos mantenga informada. Pero <BR>además digo, primero que nada, que confío que
todas hayan llegado bien a <BR>vuestras casas, a pesar d elos largos viajes, y sobre todo que hayan llegado <BR>satisfechas con la buena reunión. Comparto mi satisfacción por el buen <BR>entendimiento que tuvimos con los representantes regionales y con haber <BR>logrado una declaración que refleja nuestras preocupaciones con un lenguaje <BR>también político. Creo que el ETF se ha consolidado como un grupo central <BR>dentro de GCAP y que el contar con un grupo facilitador ha contribuido a <BR>eso. De manera que muchas gracias a todas! Y confío que trabajemos también <BR>muy fuerte este año.<BR>Tenemos que acordar quién nos representará en el grupo de prensa (distinto <BR>al de comunicaciones). Se precisa una voluntaria!.<BR>Hasta ahora tenemos la siguiente distribución de tareas:<BR>IFT: Ana, y Rosa es mi suplente<BR>e-communications: Chona<BR>Mobilisation: Rosa (y Lysa?)<BR>Josephine: participó en la reunión del 6 de mayo pero no sé si quedó con una <BR>responsabilidad
específica y le pido que lo aclare.<BR>Prensa: pendiente<BR><BR>Sugiero que tengamos una conferencia a través de Skype. Las que no tienen <BR>aún una dirección de Skype pueden adquirirla gratis, bajando Skype de <BR>internet sin costo!

I am writing to follow up on a proposal <BR>>>>presented<BR>>>>at the meeting by Irfan Mufti on my behalf and which I believe was<BR>>>>favourably received by delegates.<BR>>>><BR>>>>It concerns the formation of two new working groups in GCAP.<BR>>>><BR>>>>The first is a Communications Group, aimed
principally at ensuring an<BR>>>>integrated communications strategy and clarifying our messages. The <BR>>>>second<BR>>>>is a Media Team, aimed at securing good, timely media coverage in as<BR>>>>efficient a manner as possible. Full terms of reference for both are<BR>>>>attached.<BR>>>><BR>>>>I am looking for people to join both groups and hope to hold the first<BR>>>>teleconference calls on Wednesday May 16th if that suits everyone. <BR>>>>PLEASE<BR>>>> SUBMIT YOUR PROPSOED MEMBERS BY THE END OF THIS WEEK IF AT ALL <BR>>>> POSSIBLE.<BR>>>><BR>>>>After the first teleconference call, I suggest the Media Team stays in<BR>>>>very regular contact through e-mail and online chats as well as frequent<BR>>>>conference calls. The Communications Group should probably convene by<BR>>>>teleconference at least twice before the G8 in Germany to
start with and<BR>>>>subsequently every two weeks. This can be discussed later to see if this<BR>>>>is feasible for everyone.<BR>>>><BR>>>>Call for Members of the Communications Group<BR>>>><BR>>>>The Communications Group will agree the overall communications strategy<BR>>>>for GCAP 2007 mobilisations and especially October 17th. It will also<BR>>>>share information on opportunities and challenges at the regional and<BR>>>>local levels, link electronic and offline communications as well as<BR>>>>provide guidelines and policy advice to other constituency groups.<BR>>>>The Group will liaise directly with the IFT on all matters related to<BR>>>>communications strategies and messaging.<BR>>>><BR>>>>We need a combination of skills to make this group effective. It should<BR>>>>therefore include: Regional representatives with communications
skills,<BR>>>>E-Comms and Mobilisation Team members as well as representatives from the<BR>>>>principal partner INGOs. It is understood that for some specific events,<BR>>>>the composition might vary (e.g. when agreeing the G8 messaging a member<BR>>>>of that group would be included). A suggested composition is in the<BR>>>>attached TOR.<BR>>>><BR>>>>Call for Members of the Media Team<BR>>>><BR>>>>The Media team will be very action-based and drive the coverage of GCAP<BR>>>>actions at a local, regional and global level. The members should be <BR>>>>media<BR>>>>specialists with the know-how and resources to identify opportunities and<BR>>>>respond accordingly. Collating media coverage of GCAP in 2007and<BR>>>>supporting the new whiteband website with content for the media section <BR>>>>is<BR>>>>also a priority for this
team.<BR>>>><BR>>>>The team will be directly involved in media activity around key<BR>>>>mobilisation dates, in particular October 17th, , drafting & getting<BR>>>>approval for media materials, following up requests for interviews and<BR>>>>preparing briefs where necessary, including agreed messaging in all press<BR>>>>material, information sharing on media opportunities (interviews/<BR>>>>editorials/ photo/ video) and challenges at the regional and local levels<BR>>>>and dividing responsibilities accordingly as well as providing content in<BR>>>>the form of releases and coverage to the Whiteband.org website.<BR>>>><BR>>>>We need a good geographical and linguistic range of members to make this<BR>>>>group effective. It should therefore include: Regional representatives<BR>>>>with media skills, an E-Communications team member as well
as<BR>>>>representatives from the press offices of the principal partner INGOs.<BR>>>>The number is not limited.<BR>>>><BR>>>><BR>>>>I look forwarded to hearing from you and please do not hesitate to write<BR>>>>to me with any questions.<BR>>>><BR>>>>Yours sincerely,<BR>>>><BR>>>><BR>>>><BR>>>>Ciara<BR>>>><BR>>>>Ciara O´Sullivan<BR>>>><BR>>>><BR>>>><BR>>>><BR>>>>GCAP Media Coordinator - www.whiteband.org<BR>>>><BR>>>><BR>>>>Cel: +34 679 594 809<BR>>>><BR>>>><BR>>>>Skype name: cmosullivan<BR>>><BR>>><BR>>>><< CommunicationsWorkingGroupTOR.doc >><BR>>><BR>>><BR>>>><< MediateamTOR.doc
