>>The World Social Forum is coming to Mumbai, India in January 2004. 
>>Indymedia India and indymedia activists from other IMC's are 
>>planning a small project to cover the social forum, parallel 
>>events, and build indymedia organizing within south asia.

>>The project includes setting up a small media center with internet

>>internationalist drop in space for sharing of experiences, hands on 
>>and political.  An outside space [as close as possible, for support 
>>and logistics, equipment and people storage etc] is also being 
>>explored for rental. Community radio is for the most part illegal 
>>in India and not known. In prep discussions the idea came up of 
>>creating a web radio studio (for the entire period of the WSF in 
>>Mumbai) and inviting people to participate  . With this we will be 
>>both supporting the struggle to create a form of participatory 
>>media which is locally desired and creating an activity in which 
>>people can learn about and participate in indymedia activities 
>>during the forum. This would be also a space for helping build some 
>>consolidation of IMC India by doing outreach and contact making.
>>
>>We at IMC India have had major communications hitches - due to time 
>>constraints and sudden problems with connectivity leading to delays 
>>in sending out the proposal.
>>
>>The Project is to be implemented by the core volunteers of the IMC 
>>India and other visiting IMC activists and independent online 
>>activists from non imc initiatives, by giving their time and 
>>bringing in and lending some personal equipment.
>>
>>Since IMC India as yet does not have a bank account we request that 
>>the funds be sent to a IMC India volunteer based in Bombay 
>>(Mumbai). Given the shortage of time we would like to request IMC 
>>finance members to agree to transmit money to our Bombay  via 
>>courrier [DHL, Fed Ex, UPS or whatever radical equivalent]
