Mervi
Capacity Building Stream at IGF in Baku
mark the color
bottom-up exercise


Slav UN DESA
made presentation on Internet Governance Community
 online course for developing countries capacity building

raised quite a few questions
most CS members, Bill Drake, Wolfgang, myself, are note quite
convinced yet, and asked for further information
Wolfgang proposed in the end to hold an Open Forum in Baku to disucss
this further.


Peter Major
Briefing on CSTD WG on Improvement to the IGF recommendations

explaining the slide presentation, to be published from their website,
summarizing the Report, already there at their site

http://www.unctad.org/en/docs/a66d67_en.pdf

It was multi-stakeholder, disconnected from Enhanced Cooperation
mutual trust and team work
agreed main topics
39 recommendations

Implementation
No explicit provisions
we have to wait the CSTD and Ecosoc, GA endorsement,
Proactive reflections on tasks
MAG may setup Correspondence Groups
 with exception of funding, we may setup around these Main Topics

Share oints sites for each topic
Moderator/Chair for each topic
 on how to implement

Conclusion
 multi-stakeholder approach –mutual trust
 Decoupled from Enhanced cooperation
 Results –within mandate, to near changes for some
Critical changes in the Internet world not reflected
IGF in the forefront of public policy, but
  no leadership, no money
 CST 15 session
 may be too much, limitation to be clarified in the resolution


There were some questions around CSTD WG.

Then the Chair suggested to finish Remote Participation as the only remaining
agenda before lunch, close the meeting and no afternoon session.

Several, including myself, proposed to continue the discussion into
the afternoon,
one, 15 min or less is not enough for Remote participation, and two, it is not
fair to those who came to Geneva with much resources and not work until
end, combined that some members are outside the room and may plan to come
back in the afternoon, so if they find the session is fininshed
without prior notice
that is not good.

Paul suggested to hold the meeting from 2 to 3 pm.

Chair agreed, and we went to lunch.
