Language network coordinators

To facilitate communication between the Alliance’s language networks, set up as “one of the Alliance’s working practices” pursuant to a decision adopted in Dakar, each language network has a coordinator (elected by its particular members). The role of these coordinators is: to check that their network members and the Paris team members receive all relevant information; to liaise with the Paris team; to monitor the progress of projects that the network wants to carry out (co-publishing, sharing of expertise); to examine and give an opinion on applications to join their network and to liaise with the Paris team to organise network meetings. The language network coordinators have been members of the International Committee of Independent Publishers (ICIP) since March 2011.
