AVI board members meet Secretary

On February 18th, the Chairman and International Secretary of Auroville International met with the Secretary. They appreciated the opportunity to discuss and exchange on several important issues. The Secretary affirmed that there is freedom of expression in Auroville, which they had said was very important for their work. On this line they requested her, among other things, to arrange for everyone to be able to use free and uncensored e-mail traffic; to allow the editors of News and Notes to be inclusive and include the reports of the RA groups; to ensure that Auronet is free from harsh censorship; and to ensure better communication and flow of information to the whole community, built upon Auroville and worldwide recognized standards such as due process, proportionality, sincerity and substantiation of allegations.
