Chapters infuse ISOC with local and regional perspectives on developments and issues that affect the evolution of the Internet. The Chapter relationship is, therefore, very much a “two-way street”: Chapters are effective local and regional agents and are also an important source of the information that informs that mission. By joining a Chapter, you can become more personally involved in the future of the Internet by participating in activities on behalf of your local or issue specific Internet community. Chapters bring a sharper and more personal focus to local and regional issues affecting the Internet. They also create opportunities for those issues to be recognised and included in the discussion of global issues. ISOC has chapters all over the world. Additionally, joining a chapter will allow you to network with peers, attend local events and share new ideas. http://www.internetsociety.org/ --- Pray God Bless. 2013Wangari circa - "Being of the Light, We are Restored Through Faith in Mind, Body and Spirit; We Manifest The Kingdom of God on Earth".
