List of Participants

Seminar on Proposed Broadcast Legislation

Organized by the American Bar Association, Internews, National Democratic Institute and Open Society Georgia Foundation

Republican Hearing Room, Parliament of Georgia

Tbilisi, Georgia

February 27, 1998

Note:  The following list was compiled from those who signed a circulated sign-up sheet at the seminar.  It is alphabetical by last name.  There may be errors as a result of individuals who were present but did not sign, handwriting that could not be read accurately, the individual's characterization of the institutional affiliation, the translation from Georgian to English, or my copying.  Point out to me any errors you find (use the "Nicholas Johnson" Mail To feature here) and I'll make the corrections.  Although the meeting was public, and the sign-up sheet voluntary, so that listing here involves no issue of privacy, I have not included phone numbers or e-mail addresses.  If you would like to contact any of these individuals I am willing to make my best effort to track them down and get back to you -- again, just use this Mail To feature.  -- Nicholas Johnson, March 26, 1998
