I agree with what Carlos and Anriette have already said. <br>After some asking-around, what I could understand was that:<br><br>a) The absence of a clear mention to "multistakeholderism" does not mean a setback on the position the countries had in Rio (transparent, democratic, multistakeholder, multilateral IG). It is more related to the long hours of work of a small and overstreched drafting group, with several topics in hand.<br>
<br>b) The set of recommendations from Rio, as they read (eg. new UN body, etc), will not be forwarded to the UN GA. I don´t know exactly what will be tabled regarding EC, but conversations with non-gov actors during the IGF did have an impact.<br>
