Because one of the regional offices of FUNREDES is
located in Venezuela, no wonder that numerous actions take place directly or indirectly in
connection with this country.
So is the case of a long way of relations with the
National Consulting of Scientific and Technological Investigations (Consejo Nacional de
Investigaciones Científicas y Tecnológicas, CONICIT), in its condition as owner of the
academical and scientifical telematic network, inicial known as the 'Sistema Automatizado
de Información Científica y Tecnológica, SAICYT' and earlier known as the 'Red
Académica Cooperativa de Centros de Investigación y Universidades Nacionales, REACCIUN'
P. Liendo was
member of the Assisting Group Ad Hoc of SAICYT and of the Directive Committee of REACCIUN
in two opportunities.
FUNREDES contributed distributed information about SAICYT
to the english-speaking world: See "The SAICYT of
Venezuela" (P. Liendo, Internet Society News, Vol.1, No.2, 92)
Sometimes it was considered more convenient first to show
the profound reflexions of REACCIUN in a written form before the authorities of CONICIT
and before a public opinion: See "About the
Academic Network of the Center of Investigation and National Universities, REACCIUN",
P. Liendo, July 1995), letter directed to the president of CONICIT for his consideration
and its announcement.
Actually, FUNREDES goes on with conversations to offer
technical advice to REACCIUN in special areas.
FUNREDES integrated itself in the group of institutions
which finally founded the Latin American Network School (Escuela Latinoamericana de Reded,
EsLaRed). P. Liendo was member of the Organization Committee of the second Latin American
Network School, opened in Mérida, Venezuela in Nov. 95. See the program of the second
Latin American Network School.
Together with the Panamerican Federation of Faculty
Associations of Medicine (Federación Panamericana de Asociaciones de Facultades de
Medicina, FEPAFEM), FUNREDES participated in the formulation of different initiatives
like:
The petroleum industry of Venezuela contracted the
services of FUNREDES to realize a sensibilization program in the field of the Emergent
Information and Communication Technologies. This was directed to the office of PEQUIVEN, a
filial of the petrol complany of Venezuela.
Later it was contacted by CORPOVEN and it is found in
conversations with the CIED for similar initiatives.

FUNREDES, forms part of the editorial consulting group of the 'Foro de Informació'
magazine. In its third number appeared the article "New Communication
Environments". The ideas where inicially expressed in the following event: "A
