Subject: 	WIPO Manifesto for Transparency, Participation, Balance and Access
Date: 	Wed, 09 Mar 2005 23:36:37 +0000
From: 	Pedro de Paranagua Moniz <pedro_paranagua@xxxxxxxxxxxx>

Dear Colleague:

The following open letter will be sent to WIPO, the World Intellectual
Property Organization, calling for TRANSPARENCY, PARTICIPATION, BALANCE
and ACCESS in its work. Prior to a large and ambitious publicity
campaign, your sign-on to this letter is essential.

WIPO is locking NGOs out of its negotiations, using tactics to isolate
those governments who stand up for you, and hiding the evidence by
deleting it from their website. The mentioned letter goes into great
detail on this.

If you are a computer programmer or polititian; if you are ill, if you
have an audio/visual or motor impairment, if you are a student,
academic, or citizen concerned about access to knowledge and the absence
of balance between rightsholders and the public interest within
developed countries and mainly in developing/least developed countries,
please take a moment to read this and consider signing into it.

Things you can do:

   1.

      sign onto the open letter (now available in English and
      Portuguese) by visiting this link:
      http://www.petitiononline.com/wipo/petition.html, and

   2.

      spread it all over the world by sending e-mails and putting in
      your webpage a link to the online petition.

Gandhi said, "First they ignore you, then they laugh at you, then they
fight you, then you WIN." This is the fighting part, and your help is
essential.
