[Imc-africa] [New-imc] Online form: Proposed new IMC! (IMC Kenya)

[valentine V eben]

Good to know about your forming imc-Kenya. 
John and their group had applied for imc Kenya before. At the time Blicero talked about your group. There was some slowness in communication between Blicero and John(from other group) at the time. In anycase Blicero had ASK for the application of the other group to be kept on hold because you guys have been organising for long. Then I had recommended John's group to get contact with your group which John did indicate in an email that he had written to you people but did not get any reply.
Now that you guys are here and seeing the contact and resources both human and material already at your reach, I see you are up to it. I will recommend that you get contact with the other group john's email is  jonafrica at avu.org .
Obviously this should only have the results of fortifying your group. 
There is a planned imc-africa meeting from the 1st to the 14th March 2004 in Dakar Senegal. If you guys are interested in sending a delegates please do indicate by email to imc-africa at lists.indymedia.org
  Best wishes

>> We are based in Kenya so we CANNOT contribute  server or bandwith. However we can contribute a lot of organizing, media activism skills; CMAQ in Montreal has offered technical assistance; we have access to various audio-visual and graphic software and we can of course access the internet on a regular basis.
>> 
>> outreach:
>> We have spent roughly  six to eight months contacting Kenyan social justice and media activists based in Kenya, North America, Europe and other parts of Africa; We have held several meetings in Nairobi and Mombasa and we have developed a consensus that we want to do this. One of our meetings held in Nairobi in September featured a presentation by Francois L\'Ecuyer who is involved with IMC South Africa.
>> 
>> introductory_statement:
>> We want to participate in the Indymedia Network because we are first and foremost anti-imperialist activists who have seen the potency of the IMC model; we are already using it to disseminate information; we feel it will give us greater autonomy as well as link us globally with other activists around the world; it will also help us  coordinate ongoing struggles in Kenya and tell the outside world about what is happening in our country that is progressive and alternative.
