[Chapter-delegates] good news from UNESCO

[Franck Martin]

If I recall I/We pushed for ISOC to renew relations with International organisations like UNESCO, which ISOC did, but it seems the time to shift gears.

Veni, 


I agree with Carlos and Jacek that a good relationship with UNESCO, since we are an NGO, would make sense and may open opportunities for more global actions to help promote the unfettered Internet...

Hi. 
Good news coming from UNESCO - Bulgarian Irina Bokova is the next Director-General. 
She ran an Internet campaign, as well, and if we want ISOC to enhance relations with UNESCO, I'd be happy to help. 

Best, 
Veni 

PARIS - UNESCO says a career diplomat from Bulgaria has defeated a controversial Egyptian candidate to head the United Nations agency for culture and education. 
The chairman of UNESCO's executive board says Bulgaria's ambassador to France, Irina Bokova, has beaten longtime Egyptian Culture Minister Farouk Hosny in secret balloting. 
UNESCO's press office says Bokova won 31 to 27 Tuesday in a suspenseful fifth round.
