FOF And IAIJ Set Sights On The United Nations!
By Maurice Ali, Journalist
As founder of our two organizations (Fortress Of Freedom Inc. and International Archiving Of Independent Journalists Inc.); it was always my goal to have media accreditation with the United Nations. Media accreditation with the U. N. would give use the extra credibility to lodge a complaint on behalf a member which had to be taken to the United Nations regarding stated policies and international treaties. I intend , therefore; to submit our application as soon as minimum requirements are met (this fall) and pursue the application vigorously.
Also, I have stated before that our long term goal is to achieve NGO status in the United Nations (minimum requirements met in 2005). Non-Governmental Organization status would finally give our organization the ability to lobby our concerns on the global stage.....Something which is very dear to my heart.
I will personally pursue these objectives and let no person doubt the resolve I have in undertaking this matter. We are closer than you think to having a say in the world we live in; and I will not let this opportunity pass us by. The details will be spelled out later. My intention here is to formally state our goals and then proceed to make them a reality.
We can make a difference if we truly believe we can; and I believe we can!
