Members of
the Seychelles Steering Committee as well as everybody else introduced
themselves personally and their relation/contribution to the Small
Islands Voice Project. Mr. Payet and Mr. De Comarmond briefed
UNESCO and the other islands on the latest developments concerning
the SIV activities in Seychelles, particularly how the community
survey was carried out and how successful it had been. Ms. Jeanette
Larue made a briefing on the Young Islanders Forum and some of
the outcomes of it.
Each member
of the steering committee present then had the opportunity to
state how they can contribute towards the project and suggested
activities that can be carried out in 2003 as part of the project.
Proposed activities from the conference call:
- Community
activities and use of existing media (community meetings, radio
talk shows, television programmes, newspaper articles, distribution
of printed materials), e.g. more environmental and consumer-related
programmes. ·
- Presentations
by the Ministry of Environment/authority responsible on environmental
problems in districts.
- More printed
materials on environmental and developmental issues to be distributed.
- Project
online newsletter.
- Exchanges,
e.g. visits for Young Islanders Forum participants.
- Youth
activities, encouraging the participation of youth.
It must be
noted that Ms. Sabrina Marie who was going to be participating
at the Inter-regional meeting in Palau also participated in the
conference call and also suggested activities as to how the youths
can be involved in the project.
Finally, general
logistical matters related to the Palau meeting were discussed.
