Debate and document repository on the Fund for Universalization of Telecommunications Services (Fust)
The e-Brasil portal is conducting a debate on the Fund for Universalization of Telecommunications Services (Fust) in the area Discussion Topics.  Fust is an important potential source of resources at the federal level to finance digital inclusion . The fund currently exceeds R$5 billion and the estimate is that in the year 2007 over R$700 million will flow into the fund. But until now it has not been used to universalize any telecommunications service. To facilitate this debate, we are creating a  repository of basic documents  and links to useful sites. If you have a document or link you would like to include in the repository, please send it to  e-brasil@e-brasil.org.br.
