4. WOUGNET Membership
Membership in WOUGNET is by participation in the WOUGNET online space. The WOUGNET mailing lists and website are hosted by Kabissa - A Space for Change in Africa. Membership is open to anyone interested in promoting or supporting the use of ICTs for sustainable development with an emphasis on activities directly related to Ugandan women. There is no fee for WOUGNET membership, which is available at three levels:
Individual: This level is for individuals. To join, one needs to subscribe to the WOUGNET mailing list by sending a message to wougnet-l-request@wougnet.org with the command subscribe in the body or subject of the message or by completing the subscription form at: http://www.lists.kabissa.org/mailman/listinfo/wougnet-l
Organisation: This level is for women organisations based in Uganda. To join, an organisation needs to subscribe to the WOUGNET mailing list (as described above) or to the monthly WOUGNET Update Newsletter at: http://www.lists.kabissa.org/mailman/listinfo/wougnet-update or by sending a message to wougnet-update-request@wougnet.org with the command subscribe in the body or subject of the message. The choice to participate at this level is in recognition of the variable connectivity experienced by organisations in Uganda. Groups that do not have regular access to email/the Internet can still disseminate as well as receive information via the Newsletter.
In addition, organisations need to provide a profile on the WOUGNET website. The profile can be submitted online via the Form on the Women Organisations page or by requesting an Organisation Entry Form from info@wougnet.org.
Affiliate: This level is for all other organisations that interested in the use of ICTs for sustainable development in Uganda and worldwide. To join, an organisation needs to subscribe to the WOUGNET mailing list. Organisations will also have links created to their websites (if available).
WOUGNET Partnerships: WOUGNET will seek partnerships or strategic alliances with like-minded organisations at a national, regional and international level.
