Could we add "multi-stakeholder" to the IGF phrase?<br><br>
<br>
Civil society is pleased with the decision to create an Internet
Governance Forum (IGF) for multi-stakeholder policy dialogue, which it
has advocated since 2003. <br><br>
As Tunis Agenda said:<br><br>
<b>72. We ask the UN Secretary-General</b>, in an open and
inclusive process, to convene, by the second quarter of 2006, a meeting
of the new forum for multi-stakeholder policy dialogue―called the
<i>Internet Governance Forum</i> (IGF).<br><br>
<b>73. </b>The Internet Governance Forum, in its working and function,
will be multilateral, multi-stakeholder, democratic and transparent.
<br><br>
I am not an expert on UN politics, but I think the inclusion of
"multi-stakeholder" to UN originated body can be very new and
important to take note for civil society.<br><br>
Thanks,<br><br>
