Alongside the five day broadcast, the World Association
of Community Radio Broadcasters (AMARC) and other civil
society organisations are holding a conference at the
World Social Forum to showcase civil society media,
information and communications initiatives.
The conference will reflect on the results of civil

Information Society and consider strategies for
strengthening the movement for communication rights.
