Dear Bruno,
I am interested to participate
in the panel of Wednesday October 1st, for both these
Initiatives.
Firstly and mainly
for the Greek "Social Defense" DD experiment and secondly
for WDDM, in case that no other member of
WDDM participates at that date, as I am inviting
them mostly for the week-end, if a WDDM meeting will
take place then. This is the reason why I have
not been registered yet, as I am waiting for answers, but
I ' ll do it tonight. Please inform the organisers
relatively.

Dear Bruce,
I appreciate your
ideas and efforts very much!
As there is not enough
interest or abilities yet of WDDM members to participate in the Aaru
Conference, I wish that you stimulate the interest of this
Movement to overcome the present situation!
Please write for
us a few concrete proposals for the reorganisation
of WDDM, especially on the items you mention below, in order to begin
discussions and set the agenda of our 4th WDDM
Congress, either in Aaru or in Internet!
Our recent DD attempt in
Greece is to shape an alternative DD coalition of
active citizens and non profit NGOs against the corruption,
that will call the political parties to make "Social
Contracts" with us and our Network, inserting in their
programmes elements of DD and our rest
of requests , in order to support ONLY
these parties that come closer to our
Views.
Thank you in
advance!

Dear George,
Thank you for the information and invite. I can not travel such
distance, but hope you will be able to set up some type of internet
correspondence. Perhaps in the future we will be able to have internet
meetings.
I encourage discussion of the charter of WDDM, "Aim" of WDDM, and
officers of WDDM.
I believe it is time for a "reorganization" of WDDM. Attempts were
made to form a "Board" however they are now expired with no election of
new members.
I look forward to your experiences and discussion on DD.
All the Best, Bruce

Dear DD friends
and allies,
being among the
founders ( 2000, Athens and Delphi) and former elected v.
Spokesperson of WDDM I wish to explain why I am not so
active tecently in worldwide affairs.I spend my
time with our DD colleagues of our NGO "Forum
for Citizens' Democracy" in preparing a model of
establishing a Direct democratic system in a
contemporary country, memer of the European Union , that is
Greece, so that we can give you and offer to WDDM
concrete examples of our practices, with independent
works in local authorities and syndicalism, in
the NGO Movements, with legal actions against
the representative system etc.
So, I
wish to invite you to meet us in Aaru , Switzerland
(Saturday 4th and Sunday 5th of October 2008)
just after the works of the Week of Democracy (
look at: www.iri-europe.org), organising
a
a separate panel and discussion about
the CICDD ( Continuing International Congress on Direct Democracy)
that celebrates this year its 10th anniversary since
the 1st International Conference in Prague, Pribram (1998), as
well as WDDM affairs( www. world-wide-democray.net) that continues offering its
services to direct democracy worldwide, though
its site and diferent practices
among its members.
PLEASE,
ANSWER soon, if you have an interest to
make this Conference of WDDM members happen,as I am
authorised to find if such an event
could take place!
With kind regards!
