Bio: 

Born in the Southern Hemisphere but raised in Scandinavia, Montserrat Nicolas lives her consultant life in Washington DC with her kid and long-suffering mate.

After a short career at the cash register of a local supermarket, and a brief stint at a vet clinic, she studied archeology, some econs and ultimately history and IR. Currently, she produces boring communications strategies and tries to spice up her analysis on hemispheric affairs. She’s a columnist for LA NACION, and penned a book, which looks at the differences among poets, politicians and intellectuals at www.curvaspoliticas.com

About me
Daniel Kaufmann
Bio: 

I am a writer and adviser with expertise in governance, corruption, financial crisis and development. For the past year I have also been blogging about these issues, bringing out the current challenges of governance and capture that afflict rich and developing countries. Contrary to what technocrats are saying about regulatory or macro ‘fixes’, the current financial crisis is due to a major failure of governance, corruption and elite capture. I was Director of Governance at the World Bank Institute, and currently I am a senior fellow at the Brookings Institute (a think tank). My blog is www.thekaufmannpost.net

Send a message to G20 leaders

Moblog is a web and mobile community where people document their lives from their mobile phones. We make it easy to send in pictures and texts or video, and people can even just call in their posts. Moblog works alongside NGO's such as Greenpeace UK, Amnesty International and Oxfam GB to explore ways for people to easily engage with campaigns via their mobiles. The G20Voice project represents an amazing opportunity to give people around the world a voice that can be heard at the G20 Summit, and that's where Moblog and our voice partner Spinvox come in.

Through the Spinvox voice to text service and Moblog's mobile blogging platform, we are able to provide a service enabling people all over the world to simply call a local number to ask a world leader attending the summit a question. The technology converts the speech to text, and posts it along with the audio to the G20Voice moblog. All of the questions asked will be collated and the best of them will be asked directly of the world leaders to whom they are posed. The bloggers at the event are your voice, all you need to do is ask the question that matters to you most by calling the relevant number below:
