Code of Ethics & Memo Text published

In order to consolidate all our efforts regarding the Code of Ethics Against Hate Speech and the mechanisms which will be adopted in the future to effect the Code and oversee it, I have registered and authored a new site specifically for that purpose. It is available at http://bahraincodeofethics.org.

Although there is still quite a lot more information that needs to be entered there, I think what I have done today is a good start. I chose to make the site bi-lingual (that was difficult!) but due to the nature of the beast, it is of course more skewed to the Arabic language.

You will find the full text of the Code published there in both Arabic and English.

Over the next few weeks I will post all the historical data that I can find to document the whole process, and add more features to the site to enable ongoing discussions, publish the lists of participating persons and sites and any other information which we feel necessary to make this project a success.

I hope you’re having a wonderful Friday/weekend and I want to (belatedly) wish all Bahrainis a very happy Independence Day!
