Dear Friends and Colleagues, In the next few days IRIN will be releasing the latest of its short documentary films and we are requesting subscribers to order online as per the link below if they wish to receive a copy.
"Somalia: A State of Need" is a twenty minute film looking at the consequences to the civilian population of the recent take over of much of Somalia by the Union of Islamic Courts. As with all IRIN Films, the aim is to increase awareness and understanding of humanitarian crises and to assist fellow humanitarian actors in their advocacy efforts. As a humanitarian news agency IRIN specializes in the creation of advocacy tools but remains dependent on its partners for the dissemination of these messages. IRIN Films are distributed free-of-charge but because of growing production and distribution costs we ask that only those agencies and NGOs actively involved in advocacy work request copies. While we will endeavour to meet demand, we cannot guarantee that we will be able to provide copies to all who request them. In addition, while the vast majority of films that are dispatched reach their recipients in good time, occasionally the unreliability of postal systems may mean that copies are delayed or, rarely, lost. We thank you for your patience in such instances. Would all interested parties please click on the link below to apply for a copy of this film: http://www.irinnews.info/filmorders/somaliastate.asp We look forward to hearing from you and kindly request that you provide us with feedback on your usage of the film. The film can be seen in low resolution on our website: www.irinnews.org/film Best regards, Pat Banks IRIN Coordinator _______________________________________________ M-net mailing list M-net@mauritanie-net.com http://mauritanie-net.com/mailman/listinfo/m-net_mauritanie-net.com
