The committee have studied the results of 2002 and wish to pinpoint certain weaknesses that the event presented and to suggest some directives in order to correct them and to make sure that the Internet Fiesta 2003 will be an even more successful than in the past.

• Therefore, the committee encourages all the contributors to get in contact with all possible expatriated web communities, every where, all around the world, and to inform them, or to propose to them to become our partners in every possible project being prepared. Furthermore, it appears that the most efficient way to work being if you keep forwarding information throughout your network. To insure the success of our Fiesta, we can never be too insistent on this point.

• The committee encourages you to engage in formal relations, as soon as possible, with institutions and officials in your town, region or nation in order to obtain official supports, grants, representations or accreditations for you project, your local committee or the International Fiesta Committee.

• The committee keenly advises you to get in contact equally with a maximum of local, regional or national media and to associate them to your initiatives in order to give to the internet Fiesta the largest possible public notoriety.

• We also invite you to look actively for sponsors and partners, not only for your own projects but also for your local committee or for the International Committee. Remember that the partners gain increased visibility, adapted to their very needs and only good partnerships will allow the Fiesta to keep existing. Please intensify your effort especially in the direction of IT and NTIC sectors. Weavers who would have found a sponsor or a partner for their local committee or for the International Committee will see their project entitled for a commission rewarding their action.

• The committee would like every one involved in the Internet Fiesta 2003 to contact every possible N.G.O. in order to make them participate in one way or an other in the Fiesta and to make them use their network for our mutual benefit.

• Finally, it appears to be particularly important that every weaver get in contact with schools and universities to inform them and to encourage them to participate in your project or to prepare their own but also in order to provide the entire Fiesta network with translation resources in a maximum of languages.
