[Chapter-delegates] good news from UNESCO

[Jacek Gajewski]

Dear Veni,

    congratulations! In Poland, UNESCO played important role in our
project "Internet for Schools" in mid-90's, so we believe that
problems of e-education might be an area, where we can have closer
cooperation.

    Polish  Academic Network did a great job in digitizing 'monuments'
of written culture - so digitisation of cultural heritage to make it
world wide accessible is next possible field of cooperation betwen
ISOC and UNESCO.

So, your 'interfacing' with Ms Bokova might turn out very useful for ISOC.

With best regards,
Jacek Gajewski
