FIRE and OneWorld Radio at WSIS

Radio Feminista/Feminist International Radio Endeavour - FIRE, OneWorld Radio member, will be broadcasting live “Voices on Open Source,”* programme from the official UN World Summit on Information Society (WSIS) Conference, December 10-12 ( from 6-8 pm Geneva time, or 11 am-1 pm Costa Rica time or CST.)

The program, which will be broadcast in Spanish and English from the kiosk of OneWorld Radio includes reports, interviews, and updates about the NGO Forum and official conference focusing on the main issues of debate at the event.

The program will be posted daily in mp3 and RealAudio in FIRE’s web radio

”Voices on Open Source” means that women’s voices in FIRE, like open source technology, flow freely without censorship, are “priceless” in the sense that they cannot be bought or sold as commodities in media, and stem from the inner strength and organizational capacity that women have in their efforts to influence agendas.
