key competence areas of access to information and knowledge, freedom of expression, privacy, and ethical dimensions of the information society, and contains possible options for future actions.

meet UNESCO’s interests and mandate. The study proposes therefore the concept of “Internet Universality” as the Organisation’s own clear identifier for approaching the various fields of Internet issues and their intersections with UNESCO concerns.

recognised by UNESCO governing bodies. An Internet developed on these principles would be: human Rights-based; Open; Accessible to all; and governed through Multi-stakeholder participation (summarized in the acronym R.O.A.M.).

<p class="MsoNormal">Dear Wisdom<br>
<br>
To answer your question about whether there is a Charter of Human Rights and Principles for the Internet; there is indeed and in a number of languages.<br>
<br>
<a href="http://internetrightsandprinciples.org/site/" target="_blank">http://internetrightsandprinciples.org/site/</a><br>
<br>
Its influence is on record as it has been working on a number of levels, and across sectors around the world. Indeed the work being undertaken at ICANN around Human Rights has its precursors in the IRPC Charter.
<br>
<br>
A number of organizations, networks, and individuals in all these lists you posted the question to have been directly involved in this project too.

<p>Dear All, <o:p></o:p></p>
<p>I do not condone sexual harrassment nor bullying, intimidation of any sort. <o:p>
</o:p></p>
<p>The matter disclosed on a public mailing list for something that has been logged with Ombudsman or relevant authorities is not for public consumption particularly if determination has yet to be reached.
<o:p></o:p></p>
<p>Any organisation operating within the 21st century should have a decent sexual harassment policy and if it does'nt then develop one.
<o:p></o:p></p>
<p>For those who wanted justice, public ridicule without proper due process is equally reprehensible as alleged sexual harrassment.
<o:p></o:p></p>
<p>The fact that the matter has been logged with appropriate authorities who should also afford the accused party the right to be heard.
<o:p></o:p></p>
<p>Personally, I do not see the link to internet governance as this is a matter for relevant authorities.

<p class="MsoNormal">PFA my public statement in this respect. It is a repeated plea to the Board of ICANN as well as the Community to clarify the timeline as to the development of the sexual harassment policy in this regard, as well as to reaffirm a commitment
towards the development of strong, continued gender sensitisation.<o:p></o:p></p>
