<nettime> Mandela/Madiba

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

 

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 Freedom Charter (1955)  http://www.anc.org.za/show.php?id=72 which guided Mandela and his ANC colleagues over the decades and as they approached the work of Government. 

 

Best,

 

Mike
