What do you consider the most important achievements of the first five IGF meetings?</p><p class="MsoPlainText"> </p><p class="MsoPlainText">IGF created the space for dialogue by all stakeholders in an open, inclusive manner. These emergence and development of the multistakeholder principle and practice are perhaps the biggest contribution IGF has achieved so far. It helped many participants to understand the issues of their interest, as well as to understand how other actors understand, act and accept
their issues. Emergence of Regional and National IGF with multistakeholder approach is another achievement.</p><p class="MsoPlainText"> </p><p class="MsoPlainText"> </p><p class="MsoPlainText">2. How satisfied are you with the delivery of the results of discussions at the IGF and the impact they have had on developments in national, regional or international Internet governance?</p><p class="MsoPlainText"> </p><p class="MsoPlainText">IGF has made a reasonable advancement of the understanding of the issues. Yet, at national, regional and international levels, we have mixed assessment for the impact it brought.</p><p class="MsoPlainText"> </p><p class="MsoPlainText"> </p><p class="MsoPlainText">3. Which, if any, new mechanisms would you propose to improve the impact of the IGF discussions, in particular as regards the interaction between the IGF and other stakeholders? Please specify the kind of mechanism (e.g. reporting,
exchanges, recommendations, concrete advice, etc.) and the stakeholders (e.g. intergovernmental bodies, other fora dealing with Internet Governance, etc.).</p><p class="MsoPlainText"> </p><p class="MsoPlainText">a) One mechanism we can suggest is to come up with some form of recommendations or messages where all stakeholders have [rough] consensus. They will not be binding, but could still function as model, reference or common framework. Working process towards achieving these rough consensus will create better and deeper understandings amongst different stakeholders.</p><p class="MsoPlainText"> </p><p class="MsoPlainText"> </p><p class="MsoPlainText">b) The Secretariat and MAG should be strongly encouraged to directly foster discussion and debate of difficult issues in main sessions, instead of avoiding them.</p><p class="MsoPlainText"> </p><p class="MsoPlainText">4. In your view, what important new issues or themes concerning
Internet governance have emerged or become important since the Tunis phase of the Summit, which deserve more attention in the next five years?</p><p class="MsoPlainText"> </p><p class="MsoPlainText">IGC feels that attention to the development agenda, issues concerning the marginalized groups or actors, have yet gained sufficient level of work at IGF and its outcome. These may not be the “new” issues, but we strongly feel they are very important.</p><p class="MsoPlainText"> </p><p class="MsoPlainText">Besides them, emergence of new technologies, tools and services, such as cloud computing; user-generated, SNS and online sharing services such as wiki, YouTube, Ustream, twitter and Facebook; DPI and behavioral targeting advertisements; wide deployment of mobile services including smart phones and tablet computers pose all kind of new challenges for governance.</p><p class="MsoPlainText"> </p><p class="MsoPlainText"> </p><p
class="MsoPlainText">5. What do you think should be the priority themes and areas of work of the IGF during the next five years?</p><p class="MsoPlainText"> </p><p class="MsoPlainText">Followings will be the areas of themes and works that have priorities we think.</p><p class="MsoPlainText"> </p><p class="MsoPlainText">a) Enhancing multi-stakeholder framework within IGF.</p><p class="MsoPlainText">b) Promote capacity building for developmental agenda of governance</p><p class="MsoPlainText">c) Balancing the interests – to empower those of marginalized and under-developed in all organizations and fora dealing with Internet governance – such as ICANN, W3C, IETF, RIRs, ITU, WIPO, CoE, OECD, UNCTAD/CSTD and United Nations itself.</p><p class="MsoPlainText"> </p><p class="MsoPlainText">6. How can the capacity of those groups that are not yet well represented at the IGF be improved? In particular, what could be done to improve the
capacity of representatives from developing countries?</p><p class="MsoPlainText"> </p><p class="MsoPlainText">a) Establish special funding mechanism by IGF itself to help actors from developing countries to continuously engage in IGF and related organizations and meetings. Fellowship works carried out by DiploFoundation, dDotAsia Oorganizsation, Interne Society [other reference, please] and other institutions offer good reference for this, but they should be expanded in larger scale. Targeting youth groups or younger generation in profession, will have, in the long run, effective impact.</p><p class="MsoPlainText"> </p><p class="MsoPlainText">b) Providing technical training to policy makers and policy training to engineers will also help close the gap(s) within the under-represented and also even well-represented.</p><p class="MsoPlainText"> </p><p class="MsoPlainText"> </p><p class="MsoPlainText">7. How do you think more
awareness of Internet governance issues and the IGF process can be raised amongst groups whose lives are affected by Internet governance but who are not yet part of the IGF process?</p><p class="MsoPlainText"> </p><p class="MsoPlainText">a) Giving more weight to regional and national IGF meetings, making more direct “links” to the main IGF meeting will help outreach to those who have not yet involved in IGF process. Securing the same level of working framework of IGF, such as multi-stakeholder composition and inclusion of civil society groups (where such practice is relatively new or scarce) should be maintained.</p><p class="MsoPlainText"> </p><p class="MsoPlainText">b) Ensuring a plurality of civil society voices be heard in Internet governance processes will also be effective in reaching out to those yet to participate.</p><p class="MsoPlainText"> </p><p class="MsoPlainText">c) Online meetings are most effective when provision
is made for participation both synchronously (ie. in real time) and asynchronously. The remote hubs and moderators at the Vilnius IGF made good progress towards this direction. Using such tools as blogs, Twitter, mailing lists, Facebook and so on over an extended period may also increase the awareness.</p><p class="MsoPlainText"> </p><p class="MsoPlainText">d) Organizing some sessions completely online will create “level playing field” among all participants, and may also demonstrate the effectiveness of these tools/technologies, and may also improve the quality of services in turn.</p><p class="MsoPlainText"> </p><p class="MsoPlainText">e) Increase linguistic diversity. Using UN major languages other than English at certain meetings and occasions as main working language (translated into other UN languages) will increase the outreach to non-English speaking population of the globe and will give more sense of ownership. Currently,
English is the only default working language, but we think it does not have to be so.</p><p class="MsoPlainText"> </p><p class="MsoPlainText"> </p><p class="MsoPlainText">8. How, if at all, do you think that the IGF process (including the format of the meeting, the preparatory process, the development of the agenda, etc.) needs to change to meet changing circumstances and priorities?</p><p class="MsoPlainText"> </p><p class="MsoPlainText">As we replied to the MAG questionnaire, the organizing work of IGF primarily by MAG should be improved. More outcome oriented direction might improve the quality and value of IGF, but this should be carefully exercised so as not to lose the open and free spirit of IGF which contributed a great deal.</p><p class="MsoPlainText"> </p><p class="MsoPlainText">9. Do you have any other comments?</p><p class="MsoPlainText"> </p><p class="MsoPlainText">Since we are still in the early stage of the
consultation process, our comments include some tentative ideas. We will closely follow the WG process and will provide more comments and suggestions accordingly.</p><p class="MsoPlainText"> </p><p class="MsoPlainText">-----------------</p><p class="MsoPlainText">____________________________________________________________</p><p class="MsoPlainText">You received this message as a subscriber on the list:</p><p class="MsoPlainText"> <a rel="nofollow" ymailto="mailto:governance@lists.cpsr.org" target="_blank" href="mailto:governance@lists.cpsr.org"><span style="color: windowtext; text-decoration: none;">governance@lists.cpsr.org</span></a></p><p class="MsoPlainText">To be removed from the list, send any message to:</p><p class="MsoPlainText"> <a rel="nofollow" ymailto="mailto:governance-unsubscribe@lists.cpsr.org" target="_blank" href="mailto:governance-unsubscribe@lists.cpsr.org"><span style="color:
