The information sources Anonymous FTP, GOPHER and WWW of FUNREDES represent all the material that has been created since the very start of our project. In this way we hope to conserve the memory of the foundation with the purpose of sharing it with people interested in:
- The history of the scientific and academic networks in Latin America and The Caribbean
- The metodological aspects in relation to the development of the mentioned networks
- The results of the projects of certain national networks.
- The impact of the new technologies of information and communication, NTIC, in question of development.
The content of our information system is unique (more than 200 documents), it covers a bright variety of issues about development and the Internet in the South.
To process and organize this amount of information requires a lot of will and power, especially for an ONG with limited possibilities. We decided to no longer delay the publication of our information system though we know that we'll need some weeks more to complete the recollection, description, translation, and organization of all the contents. We hope you'll understand that and you'll be pacient.
We think this material could be interesting for:
- People who work with networks in this region or in different parts of the world.
- The representants of international cooperations, wether they are from multilateral or bilateral oganizations.
- People investigating about NTIC's, Latin America, The Caribbean or development in general.
- Any person who is interested in the mensioned themes.
Organization of FUNREDES' information system Our information system consists of three levels: Anonymous FTP, GOPHER and WWW allow the user to access the same information in different ways (See technical information).
- An anonymous FTP-Server lets users access the documents directly in different directories (proyectos, ponencias, publicaciones, notas de correo, misceláneos), following table (1).
URL : ftp://ftp.funredes.org login : anonymous password: (your e-mail address)Note: People who only have an e-mail access can use FTP-mail.
- A gopher-server lets the user navigate in a menue-structure to find a file. The menue consists out of:
- Institutional data
- Projects
- Publicationes
- Conferences (Information about conferences in which we participated as expositor)
- Services
URL: gopher://gopher.funredes.org:70
- A WWW-Server lets users navigate via hypertext links to find the information he/she is looking for.
Note: The documents about 'Projects' and 'Publications' can be found under 'Activities'.
