[Chapter-delegates] Eduardo Díaz SOI :: Upcoming election for replacement of ChAC Steering Committee member

[Carlos Vera]

*Dear Olga and friends:*

Thank you for this question. Ecuador is one of the most successfull
chapters working on community initiatives using the resources we have
available from ISOC HQ.

Our 3 emblematic projects using the grant from ISOC are:

1. Digital inclusion for indigenous people using material in Quichua
language (indigenous language). More than 500 people from a dozen of rural
communities were benefit from this project "Internet manual for digital
inclusion in plain Quichua". We work with near 20 volunteers on this
project.

2. "Secure in the Net" a project to put parents and childs, together
working to be secure on the net. 11 schools and more than 1200 people
received conferences and shared best practices on how to maintain a safe
Internet. 15 volunteers traveled all around the country visiting schools,
and working with kids, their parents and teachers.

3. "New Generation Leaders" a replica project based on the New Generation
Leaders project from ISOC. 50+ volunteers reinforce our chapter from this
project. 7 of them has already traveled to ISOC, Icann and IGF thanks to
this project and when come back, they helped with capacity building. Also
we have some participants from this project in the IGF South School running
by Olga.

Among this, we also run several small grants projects to reinforce the
chapter's works, creating 4 regions in our chapter for a descentralized
work in a real bottom up process. We also use several small grants for
national IGF events in preparation for the international IGF events.

We believe in what we have inside ISOC, used the available resources, and
working with our people making every day new leaders and new projects.

We have the experience to help other chapters, from the ChAC and promote a
broad consensus on Chapters participation in the decision making process
and organization of ISOC.

Best

Estimada Olga y amigos:

Gracias por esta pregunta. Ecuador es uno de los capítulos más exitosos
trabajando en iniciativas comunitarias utilizando los recursos que tenemos
disponibles desde ISOC HQ.

Nuestros 3 proyectos emblemáticos utilizando el apoyo de ISOC son:

1. La inclusión digital para las poblaciones indígenas que utilizan el
material en lenguaje Quichua (lengua indígena). Más de 500 personas de una
docena de comunidades rurales se beneficiaron de este proyecto "manual de
Internet para la inclusión digital en Quichua sencillo". Trabajamos con
cerca de 20 voluntarios en este proyecto.

2. "Seguros en la red", un proyecto para poner a padres e hijos juntos
trabajando para estar seguros en la red. 11 escuelas y más de 1.200
personas recibieron conferencias y mejores prácticas compartidas sobre cómo
mantener una Internet segura. 15 voluntarios viajaron por todo el país
visitando las escuelas, y trabajando con los niños, sus padres y profesores.

3. "Líderes de Nueva Generación", un proyecto réplica basado en el proyecto
Líderes nueva generación de ISOC. Más de 50 voluntarios refuerzan nuestro
capítulo a partir de este proyecto. 7 de ellos ya ha viajado a ISOC, ICANN
e IGF gracias a este proyecto y al volver, apoyaron con la creación de
capacidades para nuestros miembros. También tenemos algunos participantes
de este proyecto en la Escuela del Sur IGF organizada por Olga.

Adicionalmente, hemos desarrollado varios proyectos de pequeñas donaciones
para reforzar el trabajo del capítulo con la creación de 4 regiones en
nuestro capítulo para un trabajo descentralizado con verdaderos procesos
Bottom up (desde las bases). Otras varias pequeñas donaciones hemos
empleado para organizar eventos nacionales de IGF en la preparación para
los eventos internacionales de IGF.

Creemos en lo que tenemos dentro de ISOC, utilizamos los recursos
disponibles, y promovemos el trabajo con nuestra gente en equipo, forjando
cada día nuevos líderes y trabajando nuevos proyectos.

Tenemos la experiencia para desde el ChAC, ayudar a otros capítulos, y
promover un amplio consenso sobre la participación de los capítulos en el
proceso de toma de decisiones y organización de ISOC.


Saludos
