International Video Conference Event.18 January 2010 On Friday, February 19th from 15:00 to 18:00 (10:00 AM - 1:00 PM Eastern Standard Time USA), MAGPI is sponsoring an international videoconference and webcast to help raise awareness and financial support for victims of the Haiti earthquake. We're working to line up some phenomenal speakers, representatives from aid agencies, and student presentations/performances as part of this international event. We want you and your students to get involved! Here's how you can participate:
BE A PRESENTERIs your school, university or college planning a project to raise awareness or funds to help earthquake victims? We would love to give your students 5-10 minutes to share their project. Has a student created an artistic work (song, painting, mural, etc) to help raise awareness? We'd love to have him/her perform! If you are interested in performing or presenting, please send a 100 word abstract detailing your proposed presentation/performance to Heather Weisse Walsh at hweisse@magpi.net. Deadline for proposals is January 30, 2010. Presenters can perform/present live via videoconference or submit videos prior to the event. Please indicate your preference on your presentation/performance proposal. Interactive videoconference sites must have H.323 videoconference gear and, preferably, are connected to their national research and education network. SHOW THE WEBSTREAM IN YOUR SCHOOLIf you're not a presenting/performing school, don't worry! Participate by tuning in LIVE to the webstream. We'll be posting webstream instructions at the beginning of February on the MAGPI website. During the webcast, collect change and donations at your school and donate to one of the aid organisations participating in the program. Or simply just tune in and be inspired by what others are doing - - and then create your own project. LIVE BLOGGERS/TWEETERSWe're looking for schools to volunteer as live bloggers and tweeters for this event, covering the presentations and helping get word out to the world at large. Interested? Contact Heather Weisse Walsh at hweisse@magpi.net. GET YOUR ORGANISATION INVOLVEDWe want your organisation to get involved too - - the World Food Programme has already agreed to participate! If your organisation is interested in speaking/presenting/participating, please email Heather at hweisse@magpi.net.
