focus on the regional level. being present in IGF is of ultimate importance to
me and to my organization but due o limited funds, I wasn't to be able to make
if I didn't have to finance personally my expensive ticket.</FONT></DIV>

expected or potential donors to the IGF, find below the following
clarifications on the various questions related to financing participation
raised on that list:<o:p></o:p></SPAN></FONT></P>

- The Japanese contribution to the IGF Secretariat, which has been mentioned
on this list, has not yet been finalised and is therefore not yet transferred
to the IGF Secretariat. We are in touch with the IGF Secretariat and we would
therefore let you know whether anything in this grant is earmarked for this
grant for participation in the IGF Rio meeting.<o:p></o:p></SPAN></FONT></P>

- The Canadian contribution to the ITU to finance the participation of IG
experts from developing countries in the <st1:place w:st="on">Rio</st1:place>
meeting has already been partly (mostly) allocated to developing countries
panellists in some sessions of the IGF. However not the whole available
funding has been allocated, meaning that there is still a limited number of
sponsorships possible. (Among the criteria that have been and will be
considered by the ITU: experts coming from a developing country; candidates
being able to demonstrate a high expertise and a previous engagement on issues
closely related to Internet Governance and having a high profile in the field
of communications; in priority main contributors / speakers / panellists in
one of the workshops / sessions of the Internet Governance Forum meeting in
Rio; the ITU will also look at the geographical / gender diversity within its
final list of IGF participants receiving a grant. Is there any of you who
enters into this frame?).<o:p></o:p></SPAN></FONT></P>

- Other potential donors have been in touch with the IGF Secretariat and might
be willing to consider earmarking (some of) their grant to the participation
of CS experts in the Rio IGF meeting, but nothing has been finalized at this
time. In any event the risk is now it would be too late to be used for
participants’ funding.<o:p></o:p></SPAN></FONT></P>
