<br>As one of the few NCUC members who is an active media producer, I feel I have made contributions by representing the needs and interests of non-commercial media makers and organizations. I feel that it is important that ICANN reach out to more diverse participants, such as media makers. <br>

<br>As the internet becomes more central in the creation and distribution of media productions, we in the producing communities need to make sure there are policies which address our issues. Very few independent and community producers know much about the structure of ICANN or internet governance. I have spoken about these issues at several international fora, including IAMCR (International Association of Media and Communications Researchers), UDC (The Union for Democratic Communications), The Alliance for Community Media and Our Media. I have urged others from these organizations to get involved.( I am pleased that at my urging, one of my colleagues, Stefania Milan, is now a very active member of our community!)<br>

<br>I would like to contribute to the planning of and participate in the NCUC policy discussions in London.  Having worked on the WSIS policy statements and other declarations regarding the rights of community producers, I feel I can contribute effectively in defining the interests of my various community affiliations.  Of course I'm happy to help in numerous ways, so just let me know what NCUC needs in London.<br>

<br>Thanks for considering my request.  Hope to see you in London!<br><br>DeeDee Halleck</blockquote></blockquote><div><br></div>-- <br><div><a href="http://www.deepdishwavesofchange.org/" target="_blank">http://www.deepdishwavesofchange.org</a></div>
