[Chapter-delegates] Isoc courses

[Olga Cavalli]

Hello,
for those interested in material in Spanish, I have developed an online
course for the OAS, Organization of American States, about Internet
Governance.
https://www.oas.org/fms/Announcement.aspx?id=357&Type=2&Lang=spa
It is a two month basic course about Internet Governance, it is
complemented by a two hour weekly webex session for questions and debate
among me and the students.
If there is interest we can explore other ways to use this material for the
ISOC community.

Best regards to all
Olga Cavalli
