[creative-radio] Declaration for the International Day of the World's Indigenous People from World Association of Community Radio Broadcasters AMARC

 

---------- Forwarded message ----------
From: Marcelo Solervicens <secretariat@si.amarc.org>
Date: 9 August 2011 15:13
Subject: [Amarc-info-en] Declaration for the International Day of the
World's Indigenous People
To: Secretariat <secretariat@si.amarc.org>

**

*With apologies for any cross posting*

*Declaration for the International Day of the World's Indigenous People*
Rio de Janeiro, August 9th, 2011. Since 1994, on August 9th the
International Day of the World's Indigenous People is celebrated around the
world. The United Nations General Assembly marks this particular day to
raise awareness on the serious situation in which are living more than 500
millions of natives all over the world.

Several indigenous communities are claiming their land right and are
persecuted because of their claims, just as their right to use their own
language is prohibited, just as their right to access in equitable
conditions to a community radio station, and they are not heard. Indigenous
peoples constitute the poorest and powerless parts of the world population
in this globalized era.

In the world we are living in, the claim to culture as part of the identity
requires deliberative spaces and media that permit the survival of the
values that characterize each community and culture. It is the same for the
effective recognition of the condition of the peoples and the right to
self-determination, which make possible the true exercise of citizenship for
indigenous peoples.

We demand the respect without restriction of the integrity and life of the
native peoples that fight for their land right, a fundamental right for
those cultures that represent values and development forms integrated and
interconnected with the land.

It is for those reasons that the World Association of Community Radio
Broadcasters (AMARC) considers of its duty to express the fact that no
recognition of the dignity of indigenous peoples in any part of the world
will be complete, if it is not accompanied with the full exercise of
cultural sovereignty that gives the full rights to participate in the public
space.

This makes indispensable to count on community media as participative spaces
for those who, because of their ethnicity, are frequently marginalized and
denigrated. They have an urgent need of communication spaces that permit the
defense of the identity and promote ways of living specific to ancestral
communities historically marginalized.

It is in this context that AMARC asks governments to include indigenous
peoples as social actors in the media systems, recognizing their autonomy
and their fights for the defense of their rights that are spreading in every
region of the world. AMARC praises also the thousands of radio stations
that, on every continent, emphasize a communication that give place to the
expression of the cultural diversity that they represent.

We also praise community radio broadcasters that are part of the everyday
life of indigenous peoples and communities and work for their complete
recognition.

Through service to members, networking and project implementation, the World
Association of Community Radio Broadcasters AMARC, brings together a network
of more than 4,000 community radios, Federations and community media
stakeholders in more than 115 countries. The main global impact of AMARC
since its creation in 1983, has been to accompany and support the
establishment of a world wide community radio sector that has democratized
the media sector. AMARC advocates for the right to communicate at the
international, national, local and neighbourhood levels and defends and
promotes the interests of the community radio movement through solidarity,
networking and Cooperation.

[creative-radio] The legal implications of tweeting

The (US) legal implications of tweeting: Can tweets be libelous? It turns
out they can be
http://www.poynter.org/latest-news/top-stories/141987/what-journalists-need-to-know-about-libelous-tweets/

[excerpt, see original URL for embedded links]

So how can news organizations guard against libelous tweets? It's important,
Ardia said, for staffers to have a basic understanding of the legal
implications of tweeting.

Under section 230 of the Communications Decency
Act<http://www.citmedialaw.org/section-230>,
news organizations are protected from defamation liability for content
that's created by a third party. The law protects YouTube from libel
lawsuits, and it protects bloggers and news organizations from defamatory
comments that users may post. The law also protects retweets. So if a
journalist or news organization were to retweet a defamatory statement, they
would not be held accountable. If, however, they added a defamatory remark
as part of the retweet, they could be.

Generally speaking, Ardia said, a news organization would only be
responsible for an employee's defamatory tweets if the employee's use of
Twitter was part of their job or otherwise related to their line of work. If
the defamatory tweet wasn't work-related, the employee would be the only one
responsible for it.

Having social media guidelines that lay out the legal pitfalls can help. A
few months after the AP was sued, the organization updated its social media
guidelines<http://www.poynter.org/latest-news/top-stories/141987/latest-news/romenesko/139117/ap-updates-social-media-guidelines-a-week-after-warning-staffers-about-expressing-opinions/>.
(When asked whether the lawsuit Spooner filed prompted the AP to update its
social media guidelines, AP Deputy Managing Editor for Standards and
Production Tom Kent said, "Not that I recall.")

The new guidelines, which were issued a week after the AP warned staffers
about expressing
opinions<http://www.poynter.org/latest-news/romenesko/138288/ap-warns-staff-about-expressing-opinions-on-social-networks/>,
didn't specifically mention the legal implications of tweeting.

Some organizations, such as
ASNE<http://stevebuttry.wordpress.com/2011/05/12/asne-offers-good-advice-on-social-media-but-too-much-fear-and-not-really-best-practices/>,
have been criticized for creating "strict" social media guidelines that
limit journalists' ability to develop their voice and skills on social
networking sites. I tend to favor guidelines that encourage experimentation
rather than those that limit it. But given that tweets can be libelous, I
can see the value in setting stricter parameters.

When updating its guidelines recently, the BBC instituted a rule saying "two
pairs of eyes" need to look over news updates for Twitter and
Facebook<http://www.poynter.org/latest-news/top-stories/141987/latest-news/romenesko/139412/bbc-social-media-policy-insists-second-pair-of-eyes-review-news-updates-for-twitter-or-facebook/>.
The extra set of eyes could prevent the BBC from tweeting something
potentially defamatory, but that's not why the BBC made the update. Kevin
Marsh, a longtime BBC editor who played an advisory role in creating
the guidelines, explained that the update is an extension of the more
general rules and practices that the BBC follows.

"Recorded content has to go through a lengthy and comprehensive process of
compliance," said Marsh, who recently left the BBC after working there for
33 years. "Live content [anything published on social networks] has to go
through a different process, for obvious reasons, with the warranty from the
editor in charge of the output that there are at least 'two pairs of eyes or
ears' across the content, one more senior to the other, able to take action
— apology, taking down, correction — if necessary."

At The Guardian, journalists who identify themselves as Guardian employees
in their Twitter bios are advised to include a disclaimer such as, "These
are my personal views and not those of my employer."

This can be helpful, Ardia said, but it's not a complete shield to
liability.

Creative-Radio is an independent forum for people active in or interested in the use of radio in development, in particular promoting public health, improved education, protection of the environment, improved livelihoods, good governance and conflict mitigation. Since it started in 1996, Creative-Radio has been in the forefront of radio's resurgence as a tool for social change and peace-building, and it helps promote best practice in these areas.
