E-forum is an alternative to the discussions held at the Forum 2000 conference. The E-forum debates will both react to the speeches given at the Spanish Hall and elaborate own topics such as environment, technology, cyberhumanism, social theories, etc. All the sessions will be broadcasted live on the Internet. Experts, activists, artists and general Internet public will participate in the discussions that last year attracted almost 3000 people. There will also be a videoconference that will be joined by students and professors from the Brno and Olomouc universities. The sessions will be stored so people from different time zones could view them. The project has been prepared with generous support by GTS and System602.
