[IRP] Freedom House - Feb 2010 Human Rights Summit

[Robert Guerra]

Dear IRP colleagues,

I would like to share with all of you news of an upcoming event that Freedom House will be organizing next month. I will briefly mention the event at the end of today's call. Further details are below as well as in the attached blurb.

I am working with my colleague Elizabeth Floyd to have the event include virtual participation as well as have one of the working groups focus on Internet Rights & Internet Freedom.

regards

Robert
