Dear list,<br>
<br>
After starting the role of co-coordinator, I have been thinking, and<br>
also discussing<br>
with Jeremy, about the "way forward" - or more specifically, working<br>
method, modus operandi, of our caucus.<br>
<br>
Considering the many tasks ahead of us in relatively short time period, I think<br>
we need good division of labor and effective working team(s).<br>
<br>
We don't want to become a workhorse ;-), rather we would like to<br>
"coordinate", meaning to<br>
facilitate moves and works of many members of the caucus. The more people<br>
involved in the actual work, the better.<br>
<br>
For that, we like to suggest that our group to come up with the followings.<br>
<br>
a) Strategy - for coming months, in the context of IGF mandate<br>
extension debate/negotiations around UN<br>
<br>
b) Work Plan - based on the strategy, we need to plan ahead on how to<br>
work - to push our agenda - this may include forming Working Groups,<br>
ad hoc teams, use some additional online tools etc.<br>
<br>
c) Outreach Plan/actions<br>
One of the points we have discussed on the list was, if I may, the<br>
relative lack of outreach of our group, with larger Civil Society<br>
groups. Compared with WSIS days, we have less involvement from larger<br>
clouds of CS. How to address this and move forward.<br>
<br>
We like to ask you to think about these points, come up with opinions,<br>
suggestions and plans, and eventually, or quickly move to actions based on<br>
[rough] consensus with bottom-up ways.<br>
<br>
We also like some of you to become active members, taking leading roles<br>
for different items. Form working groups etc. To have wider division<br>
of labor of our work.<br>
<br>
Of course, we are open to your suggestions and also welcome more volunteers!<br>
<br>
best,<br>
<br>
izumi<br>
