>About Corporate Watch:
>
>Corporate Watch is joint project between TRAC--the Transnational
>Resource and Action Center and IGC--the Institute for Global
>Communications.
>
>It is both a website, and for those without access to the web, an
>online text-based conference accesible through any network
>affiliated with the Association for Progressive Communications.
>
>Corporate Watch is designed to provide journalists, activists and
>policy makers around the world with up to date information and
>analysis on the social, ecological and economic impacts of
>transnational corporations.
>
>The site will also serve as a mini-online magazine that runs
>features on related issues.
>
>Our first Feature focuses on the corporatization of the Internet itself.
>Entitled "The Battle for the Future of the Internet," the Feature includes
>commentary from Hot Wired executive producer Gary Wolf, media and
>technology critic Jerry Mander, NetAction director Audrie Krause, and
>Brazilian Internet activist Carlos Afonso.
>
>The Corporate Watch site also includes:
>
> *An eight part nuts and bolts manual on how to research
>transnational corporations produced by the New Delhi-based Public
>Interest Research Group.
>
> *Monthly "greenwash" awards given out by Corporate Watch and the
>environmental group Greenpeace to the most outrageous corporate
>"environmental" advertisements.
>
> *An Image Gallery, with a permanent environmental art
>collection and rotating monthly exhibits. This month's exhibit
>features images from Bhopal, India, commemorating the 12th
>Anniversary of the Union Carbide Gas Disaster.
>
> *In-depth analysis on corporate globalization, including
>reports from the Institute for Policy Studies in Washington DC and
>other organizations and publications in Australia, India and elsewhere.
>
> *News from various sources, including Multinational Monitor,
>the Malaysia-based Third World Network, Ecuador-based Oil Watch.
>
> *Direct Links to the Corporate Watch Affiliate Group--a
>collection of organizations which provide in depth research
>services.
>
> *Links to hundreds of other websites with analysis of or
