  • Andrew Puddephatt on media reform from a human rights perspective

       
     

     

     

      

    This morning I attended a very broad and interesting side-event on “Global Information and Communication Policy” organized by Consumer’s Union.  The event featured an international panel of speakers including : 

      

    • Luiz Fernando Marrey Moncau, Instituto Brasileiro de Defesa do Consumidor, Brazil 
      
    • Rosemary Okello-Orlale, African Woman and Child Feature Service, Kenya 
      
    • Bjarne Pedersen, Consumers International 
      
    • Andrew Puddephatt, Global Partners UK  
      
    • Jamie Love, CPTech 

      

    Andrew issued a provocative challenge to the media reform community to show the evidence of their claims. 
  • We are interested in moving toward a curating model of information.  Information needs to be curated in  a way that shows the information that you want similar to how a museum curates a large body of information into discrete exhibits and presentations that people can understand and digest.
  • who is doing the curating?  Is it going to be bottom-up or done by Bill Gates and Google.
  • The problem is not technology or capacity – we have lots of geeks. It’s an organizational issue – we are divided and unable or unwilling to connect with each other across borders.
