      UNESCO calls for research proposals: case studies on the role of
      Internet intermediaries in promoting freedom of expression on Internet


        Dear GigaNet colleagues,


        UNESCO has just launched a call for research proposals in order
        to identify principles for good practices and processes related
        to Internet intermediaries (such as Internet service providers,
        search engines, online media, and social media) that can protect
        freedom of expression by ensuring that any of limitations of
        this right are consistent with international standards. This
        project contributes to promoting online freedom of expression
        through assembling and analyzing empirical data, encouraging
        self-regulation and providing practical recommendations to
        industry, States and policy makers.

for more information and to apply. I hope many of you will consider 
submitting proposals.

Best,
