Hi,

Attached is a communication from a global group of civil society
organisations (in English, French and Spanish) who are proposing to hold 
an Internet Social Forum, taking inspiration from the World Social 
Forum. The preparatory process for the Internet Social Forum (ISF) will 
be kicked off at a workshop at the World Social Forum, Tunis, March, 2015.

The call can also be found at www.InternetSocialForum.net.

You are invited, in an organisational capacity or as individuals, to
participate in the ISF initiative, towards visioning a people's 
Internet, that can underpin a global democratic and egalitarian society. 
The ISF will follow the World Social Forum participation criteria which 
can be found here
<https://fsm2015.org/en/criteria-participation>.

The ISF initiative will have both an online and physical aspects - we 
will work through an e-list and also hold ISF f2f meetings.

Apart from your cooperation and collaborations, suggestions for how to
proceed are also welcome.

We are of course happy to respond to any questions that you may have in 
the above regard.

We look forward to hearing from you, and please feel free to forward 
this message to others.

Regards,
Rishab
