Call for participation in the
Radio and Public Media Forum

Lima, Perú
May 10 to 16 – 2008

Between the 13th and 16th of May, the Fifth Summit of
European
Union-Latin America and Caribbean (EU-LAC) Heads of
State will be held in Lima,
Peru. Parallel to the official meeting, social
movements and
non-governmental organizations from Latin America,
Europe and the Caribbean will
gather in an alternative event, namely “Enlazando
Alternativas 3:
Cumbre de los pueblos� (Linking Alternatives 3:
Peoples’ Summit).

During the four days of this alternative meeting,
participants will
discuss, among other issues, EU-Latin America free
trade agreements, the
ongoing implementation of a neo-liberal economic
model and development
policies proposed by the EU. Along these same lines,
social movements
will aim to integrate alternative global agendas, in
accordance with
proposals that lie closer to the majorities of all
peoples.

During the event, a Peoples’ Tribunal (PT) will be
held with the
objective of calling into justice the power system of
European
multinationals operating in Latin America, as well
as in their countries of
origin.

Alternative Media Forum, Lima 2008

Between May 10 and 16, the Alternative Media Forum
will be carried out
with the support of Enlazando Alternativas 3 and a
number of
independent media of Peru, Latin America and Europe.
This event for
communicational coverage and exchange has been held
previously with great success in
important meetings, such as the Third Summit of the
Peoples in Mar de
Plata, Argentina, the Fourth World Social Forum in
Caracas, and
Enlazando Alternativas 2 in Viena, Austria.

>From May 10 to 12, Peruvian social movements will
carry out activities
and mobilizations that precede the summits; from May
13 to 16, the
common media coverage of the Peoples’ Summit,
Enlazando Alternativas 3,
will take place.

We cordially invite all independent media from Latin
America, Europe
and around the World to join in the coverage and
reporting of the
Peoples’ Summit in Lima.

Radio Forum

The Radio Forum is an initiative of technological
convergence which
 brings together community radio initiatives, networks
and other actors
 involved in New Technologies (NTs), thereby
consolidating an information
 exchange project regarding diverse-format,  free
information production.
 The Forum thus contributes to strengthen cooperation
ties between
 radio projects from around the World through the
strategic use of NTs, and
 itself constitutes a common space for world
alternative media.    

The event will be transmitted live in FM and Internet
streaming from a
studio located in the heart of the social summit.
Programming will be
continuous, collaborative and multi-lingual through
www.foroderadios.fm.
Simultaneously, meetings, debates and exchanges of
experiences in
social resistance and alternative media development
will be carried out.

We invite all organizations with experience in radio
to participate in
this event, in order to strengthen a space that is
slowly consolidating
into the voice of those peoples and social movements
in Latina America
and Europa who fight for a world of justice.

How to participate?
All interested radios, individuals and initiatives
involved in
audio-visual media and communication can joined the
common program between May
10 and 16 in Lima. The Alternative Media Forum is an
initiative for
collective participation, self- supporting and
independent.
