[liberationtech] FW: Mandela/Madiba

[michael gurstein]

As we recognize, mourn and celebrate Mandela/Madiba it might be worthwhile
to circulate and examine the
<http://www.info.gov.za/view/DownloadFileAction?id=188939> draft South
Africa ICT Policy Framing paper.  

 

This paper, I've been told by a Community Informatics colleague who is on
the SA Government's Task Force that produced this document, explicitly (as
in section 3.5 where principles are presented) draws inspiration in large
part from the ANC's
<http://gurstein.wordpress.com/2013/11/27/internet-justice-a-meme-whose-time
-has-come/> Freedom Charter (1955)  which guided Mandela and his ANC
colleagues over the decades and as they approached the work of Government.  

 

Best,

 

Mike
