As a follow-up to those meetings, the worldwide network known as "Outlying Towns & Participatory Democracy" was created, with the aim of inventing and instituting forums in which to pursue these discussions and thereby increasing the variety of players involved worldwide. Thanks to this network, we have been able to make our voices heard, and thus present our problems in detail at major events such as the Worldwide and European Local Authorities’ Forums for Social Inclusion, the URBIS conferences and the founding "United Cities and Local Governments " (UCLG) congress. To this end, in partnership with the International Alliance of Inhabitants, we are launching an appeal to all outlying local authorities throughout the world that wish to participate, as well as to any interested researchers and citizens, to join us in developing the programme for an "Outlying Local Authorities’ Forum" which we propose to organize together in Nanterre (Metropolis of Paris - France) on March 2nd, 3rd and 4th, 2006.
