+ | |||
+ | Why do you identify yourself as being part of the listed region(s)? | ||
+ | |||
+ | Guatemala is part of Latin America | ||
+ | Vision | ||
+ | |||
+ | Why is Creative Commons important for the jurisdiction? In a country like Guatemala Creative Commons licences have different meanings. They promote the country to other countries by allowing art, science, etc to be distributed easier and faster. Guatemala is a small country but it is rich in culture. And at the same time these kind of licences allow Guatemalans to have access to information that in other way we would have never have access to, such as Open Source Education Programs. | ||
+ | |||
+ | What do you think makes a successful jurisdiction project? A project that moves you, a project that is global but at the same time is fully connected to the jurisdiction it is from. | ||
+ | |||
+ | How do you see the jurisdiction project contributing to the CC Affiliate Network? Working with other CC Chapters around the World in projects to promote CC licenses. | ||
+ | |||
+ | Community | ||
+ | |||
+ | Describe the communities that are currently active in the project. | ||
+ | |||
+ | During this year we worked with different communities from Guatemala and others from Central America. Some of these are: | ||
+ | |||
+ | - HacksHackers Guatemala | ||
+ | |||
+ | - Free Software Community | ||
+ | |||
+ | - Cyber journalists | ||
+ | |||
+ | - Guatemalan Advocacy Groups and Youth Groups | ||
+ | |||
+ | - Students | ||
+ | |||
+ | How will you continue to engage with these communities? | ||
+ | |||
+ | We will continue organizing activities that involve these communities so that the CC licenses can reach more people each day. | ||
+ | |||
+ | Describe the communities (existing or new) that you plan to focus on during the timeframe covered by this roadmap? | ||
+ | |||
+ | What all these communities have in common is that they use technology to promote what they do, they produce contents, especially multimedia contents, they share contents and they remix contents so by explaining them to use the CC tools, helps them to reach more people. | ||
+ | |||
+ | How do you plan to engage with these communities? | ||
+ | |||
+ | We have relationship with most of them and we will continue organizing activities with them. We plan to organize more CC Salons and Hackathons in the year ahead. | ||
+ | Priority Goals | ||
+ | |||
+ | What are the three most important focus areas on which the Affiliate Team will work during this time period? Please consider community building and adoption goals among your priorities. | ||
+ | |||
+ | 1. Focus-area: Open Education | ||
+ | |||
+ | Why is it important? Guatemala has one of the poorest education level in the whole World and it has been proven that OER have a direct impact on the students in their classrooms. | ||
+ | |||
+ | Which communities will benefit? Students. | ||
+ | |||
+ | 2. Focus-area: Open Government | ||
+ | |||
+ | Why is it important? Guatemala is one of the countries with more corruption in the World and Open Government initiatives seek, among other things, transparency in the Government. | ||
+ | |||
+ | Which communities will benefit ? Government, public policy makers, citizens. | ||
+ | |||
+ | 3. Focus-area: Culture and spreading the licenses | ||
+ | |||
+ | Why is it important? It is important because one of the goals of CC is to increase the number of works licenced with CC. | ||
+ | |||
+ | Which communities will benefit? Mostly the communities described before. | ||
+ | |||
+ | Project Outputs | ||
+ | |||
+ | Detail tangible project outputs (e.g., events, papers, blog posts, video/films, etc.) for each focus area including an expected date of completion. See also Timeline. | ||

Visit the jurisdiction's website.
The Creative Commons Guatemala license suite is available in the following version. License your work under these licenses, or choose the international licenses. More info.
Many thanks to all who contributed to the localization of the license suite.
Creative Commons is working with the New Media Center at the Universidad Francisco Marroquin to create jurisdiction-specific licenses for Guatemala from the “unported” Creative Commons licenses.

More about the New Media Center at the Universidad Francisco Marroquin
Conceived in 2001, the New Media department at UFM was created to assist faculty members, researchers, and students in the use, creation, and management of digital resources that complement their academic work. And, due to the improvements in IT infrastructure and user expertise as well as advances in Internet enabled teaching, it became clear that the role of the New Media department would be twofold. Firstly, the department preserves and makes the university’s unique collection of VHS and ¾” films available through digitization and conversion to Internet compatible formats to increase access and use. Secondly, the New Media department has digitized and streamed classes, conferences and lectures held at UFM over the Internet in order to preserve this locally produced content, but also to support university distance learning. We actively assist departments and professors who wish to incorporate digital media into their courses by teaching various short courses in video and multimedia production. Additionally, we include many technical and academic value added features to the digital video, such as indexes,slides, and lecture notes. These developments permit greater faculty and student participation in the creation and use of teaching resources and mean that digital video is becoming an important tool in the provision of course material at UFM.

ABOUT US:

To watch the interview
ACTIVITIES:
On February 25th, 2010, we participated in a live webcast of a talk by Lawrence Lessig. Wireside Chat with Lawrence Lessig.
Participation on FILGUA 2010. Guatemala's biggest book fair and one of the most important book fairs in Central America was held in Parque La Industria in Guatemala City. We decided to do something creative and therefore the best way to introduce people to creative commons and technology and the way these two relate to books was an unconference We thought it would be a nice approach to discuss "the future of books, electronic book" (check the event), and that's how we called the event. It was really interesting because the audience was diverse, by means of age and careers, the age range was from 20's to 60's and there were writers, scholars, designers, bloggers and between others. photos more info
WHAT'S NEXT:
During the summer of 2011 together with CC Costa Rica and other partners we will promote the licenses across the region.
The project consists on reviving Joaquin Orellana (a worldwide famous guatemalan artist who unfortunately not known in his own country), he agreed on licencing his pieces with us, we contacted dancers (Arteproyecto) and a rising DJ (Mariano Santolino) so that they derive something out of Joaquin Orellana’s work. We plan to tape all the process to exemplify how easy it would be to eliminate the intermediaries (us by contacting them) just by licencing their works, this will be presented in a shopping mall and other public places we have not concreted yet. So we have all the contacts and the process will start next year.
