society speakers at IGF <br>
<br>
<div dir="ltr">Congratulations to the speakers and to CSCG!

</div>
<div>I agree with Carolina's diagnosis of the national problems.
However, I believe that the opening ceremony usually resonates
more with politicians and the media than the closing session.
As Mike remarked, it also sets the tone of the event, and I
believe it is important that national issues are raised
whenever appropriate throughout the whole meeting. For that,
it is important that all stakeholders, from Brazil and abroad,
are aware of the problems. Joana's remarks could make sure
that they are.</div>

<br>
why would the closing ceremony be the better choice? Isn't
better for Joana to speak at the opening ceremony when
national politicians and the press are around?<br>

Good that you sent an updated bio Jo, I was about to do
that when I saw<br>
Ian's email.<br>
<br>
I am very happy about the nominations, but I would
invert the order of<br>
possible. Having a Brazilian at the end, as we had Grace
and Burcu as CS<br>
for closing ceremony, is VERY important politically.<br>
<br>
Not just for CS, but actually more as a opportunity to
have the closing<br>
speech also refer to national issues and ask specific
commitments from<br>
the Brazilian policy makers there. As Joana is
incredible aware, since<br>
she is deeply involved in the discussions, folks are
trying to<br>
puncture Marco Civil and cut back on other digital
rights in Brazil...<br>
We - the digital rights community - lost a lot of
attention due to all<br>
the political corruption that has take over all the
media attention.<br>
<br>
We need to have Joana - as a Brasilian - putting the
"country" against<br>
the wall in front of everybody. And I feel the closing
ceremony is<br>
better for that purpose.<br>
<br>
I am saying all this without having spoken with Joana.
So, I am not sure<br>
if she is available.<br>
<br>
But I wanted to make sure to leave my opinion on this
issue.<br>

nomination. I hope I can<br>

As soon as nomination is confirmed I will share a
pad for people to<br>
bring inputs. Will already be dreaming with some
insights.<br>

Below are the two nominations from Civil
Society<br>
Coordination Group for speakers for this
years IGF opening<br>
and closing ceremonies. They were chosen
from a field of 20<br>
names submitted from various civil society
coalitions, and<br>
have been forwarded to the IGF
Secretariat. I must say that<br>
any of the 20 names submitted could have
represented us<br>
admirably, and that it was a tough
decision for the CSCG<br>
members to come up with 2 names.<br>
Joana Varon (Brazil) – opening ceremony –
