We welcome media respresentatives to MobileActive08.  To request media accreditation, please read the following information.

Please note that media accreditation is granted at the discretion of the MobileActive08 planning team.

To register as a media representative, please request accreditation by submitting the
following information:

• Your first and surname
• Your postal address, telephone number, and email
• The name and website of your publication
• URLs of three published articles with your byline
• Information about the sector your publication covers, the reach and distribution size of your publication, and any other pertinent information that will help us know you better.

Please send this information to David Barnard, dbarnard@sangonet.org.za (Southern
African media) or Katrin Verclas, katrin@mobileactive.org (all other media and international media).  We will be in touch with you re. whether you have been granted a media pass.

Please note that if you are approved for media accreditation, you are expected to provide links to the conference coverage published before, during and after the event.

Applicants must cover the nonprofit/civil society, mobile, or ICT industry on a regular basis with work that is not solicited by an exhibiting company. Private consultants who are paid by an individual company or PR firms are not eligible for media accreditation.  We will check submitted credentials and may request additional credentials.

We encourage you to submit all required documentation as soon as possible. Due to high
demand, media passes are limited in number. Media accreditation grants you access to the activities and all events associated with MobileActive08. However, you and/or your organization are responsible for all costs related to travel and accommodation.

Please direct any press inquiries to David Barnard, dbarnard@sangonet.org.za (Southern
Africa) and Katrin Verclas, katrin@mobileactive.org (international).  Thank you and we are looking forward to welcoming you to South Africa!
