talk about the issue live that day. Given that the calls will
be to collect in Costa Rica, we cannot do it in an unlimited

arrangements about the times of the day during the Marathon. 


Another form of participation is by sending us messages and
letters via e-mail, which can read live during the Marathon. 

FIRE=b4s marat=f3n "Full Spectrum Against the Racism" will have

Association of Community Radios) - and it forms part of the

and local radios world wide on March 21st. 

FIRE hopes to make a contribution so that the voices of women
speaking about the theme can be heard in the Campaign. FIRE
has already made arrangements to send some of the programs of
Full Spectrum to Voice without Frontiers for re-broadcast that
day. 

Attentively, Nancy Vargas, International Radio Feminista (FIRE).
