<div>Hi Ginger <br>
</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>As far as I know, there isn't a joint civil
society/'Bestbits' meeting this year. However, a
few of us are gathering on the Sunday afternoon
(time & location TBC) to discuss inputs into
the <a href="http://www.un.org/en/digital-cooperation-panel/" target="_blank">High
Level Panel on Digital Cooperation </a>(HLPDC)
process. <br>
</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>I had floated focusing the meeting on the
HLPDC with the groups that organise the civil
society coordination meeting a while back and
those interested and following the panel are
getting together informally to discuss our
inputs into the consultation. <br>
</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>If that's of interest to anyone please let me
know as soon as you can as I'll confirm the room
sometime this week.<br>
</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Best</div>
