En esta ocasión hablan Armando Jipsion y Edna Samudio por .pa y Marvin Castañeda por .ni.

Programa de difusión de ICANN

El trabajo que realiza ICANN en las diferentes regiones sirve dos importantes objetivos de comunicación:

1. – El de llevar a ICANN las demandas de las comunidades regionales y locales;

2. – El de traer a la región información relevante sobre las discusiones y los procesos que suceden en ICANN a nivel global.

Se trata de ampliar el espectro de comunicación de ICANN, aplicándolo a diferentes idiomas y culturas. Se trata de abrir nuevos canales de comunicación que favorezcan la participación de nuevos actores (que puedan ser escuchados y puedan participar efectivamente en los procesos de ICANN).

La idea de este podcast es recuperar la experiencia de importantes actores de la región latinoamericana, como son los administradores de los códigos de país –que además en muchos casos coincide con aquellos que realizaron las primeras conexiones a Internet en sus países– para compartirla con una audiencia amplia de aquellos interesados en la evolución e institucionalización de Internet.

La ventaja de América Latina es que es una región bastante homogénea culturalmente y casi homogénea en términos de idioma.

ICANN’s outreach programme

The outreach work that ICANN carries out in different regions has two important objectives in terms of communication strategies:

1. – To facilitate a better understanding of the interest in and demands on ICANN from regional and local Internet communities;

2. – To share with the regional community relevant information about global discussions and processes currently under consideration in ICANN.

The outreach work also broadens the focus of ICANN’s communications to have them in different languages and fitting various cultural contexts.
It also opens new channels of communication to enhance participation of new players (who can be listened to and that have the chance to participate effectively in ICANN processes).

The idea behind the podcast that we are presenting is to recover the experience of important players in the Latin American region, such as the ccTLD managers –that in many cases correspond to those that first brought Internet connectivity into their respective countries–and to share it with a bigger audience interested in the evolution and institutionalization of the Internet.

Latin America has the quality of being a culturally homogeneous region in terms of culture and almost also in terms of language. This allows communications to be fluid and reach a great portion of the regional community.

You can listen to their conferences here:

• Steve Goldstein’s conference
• Susan Crawford’s conference

Steve Goldstein

(total 46:07)

Steve moves through the history that goes between a 64kbps international link to the 5Mbps connection he has at his home. He describes the start of a new profession: an international connections manager. And he explains the key of working from the grass-root level to build networks around the world. It seems incredible why downloading a document, such as the RFC 1591 short file text, was so complicated just a few years ago when there was no web. And finally he addresses the question of why ICANN (does not) rule?

Susan Crawford

(total 24:16)

Susan speaks about why she became involved in ICANN, her background (“a rebel who become a lawyer, a musician that went to law school”), ICANN’s founding myth (“the immaculate conception”) and intellectual property matters as they relate to ICANN.

On the last minute of the audio, starting at 23:10, she makes an invitation to participate in the One Web Day initiative around the world, to celebrate the changes that the Internet has done in human lives.

We hope you find these conferences interesting. They might even help to convince you to apply to ICANN’s fellowships program, active now for the next meeting in Los Angeles (29 October – 2 November). Remember that the closing day for applications is next Friday, 24 August.

Se presenta el segundo podcast sobre la historia de Internet, contada por las personas que ayudaron a desarrollar la red, entrevistadas por Pablo Hinojosa, enlace de ICANN para América Latina, quien pregunta a los administradores de los ccTLDs regionales cómo fue la primera conexión a Internet en sus países.

This is the second of a series of podcasts covering the history of the Internet as told by the people that helped build it. ICANN’s regional relations manager for Latin America, Pablo Hinojosa, asks the managers of the region’s top-level domains the story behind how they first set up the network in their country.

En esta segunda parte, la historia la cuentan: Jorge Raúl Cabañas de Paraguay, Demi Getshko de Brasil, Patricio Poblete de Chile y Oscar Robles de México.

In this second part, the story is told by: Paraguay’s Jorge Raúl Cabañas; Brazil’s Demi Getschko; Chile’s Patricio Poblete; and Mexico’s Oscar Robles.
