[Ravikant]

Dear All,

Greetings from CMS!
I am writing to inform you of CMS Conference on "Communication for Social
 Development: Discourse & Practice" scheduled for April 12-14, 2007 at
 University of Hyderabad, Andhra Pradesh.

This is a three-day event for exploring the role and relevance of social,
 development, public service communication in increasingly market oriented,
 globalizing developing countries, with focus on in South Asia. Invitees
 include academicians, practitioners of social and development communication,
 international development funding agencies, representatives of civil society
 organizations, government policy makers, communication practitioners drawn
 from conventional media, advertising and business and industry sectors.

We are proposing to forge a South Asia forum on social communication for
 serving as a clearinghouse for information on development and social
 communication research and create a platform for developing a south Asian
 perspective on social communication.

The 3-day deliberations will focus on the politics of communication; research
 and evaluation in communication for social change and development; issues of
 access, copyright & patenting; ICT & new media for development; evolution
 and future of the discipline of 'development communication'; and sectors
 specifically to be taken up are environment, health, human rights,
 governance, and education.

The conference registeration and 'call for papers' (extended abstracts) is
 open now. Please see our conference website www.cmsindia.org/csd for further
 details.

Look forward to your participation in this conference and forum.

best wishes & regards
