May I invite you all to please also comment on the Statement Workspace which is on the IGC website. it's marked final to distinguish it from the earlier draft. However, it is not final.<br><br><div class="gmail_quote">

Hi all..at two of the workshops I was involved in in Nairobi RM did not<br>
work.. either not at all, or partially. IN the last few months I have<br>
had bad experiences in trying to be a remote participant in Geneva based<br>
meetings. When my slow connection speed from South Africa interfered<br>
with my access to the meeting I was blamed for this.. and told that<br>
other people had no problems (they happened to be in Paris and Rio..<br>
places with much faster internet than what I have access to).<br>
<br>
As for the MAG meetings last week.. I personally spoke to IGF<br>
secretariat about the difficulties that remote participants were having<br>
in the morning. There was no improvement because the person responsible<br>
was having to take notes that were displayed from his PC onto the<br>
screen. I raised the concerns on the last day directly, during lunch,<br>
with the Chair from Azerbaidjan and with the Chair and then there was a<br>
response.<br>
<br>
But, if RM was taken seriously enough then more resoures would have been<br>
made available. I am not blaming the secretariat.. they were stretched<br>
and doing the best they can. The problem is deeper than just this one<br>
incident.<br>
<br>
I strongly support Ginger's points, and Marilia's additions. RM has to<br>
be taken MUCH more seriously if it is going to be a serious way for<br>
people to participate, and influence processes, without being physically<br>
present.<br>
<br>
RM is beginning to feel like MSP (Multi-stakeholder participation). The<br>
fact that it 'exists' is used to give credibility to processes that<br>
still have a very long way to go in being really inclusive. If RM is to<br>
be taken seriously it needs more focus and more budget. As long as RM is<br>
seen primarily as a way to 'save money and look good' it will not be<br>
effective as an alternative to having generally excluded actors<br>
physically present at meetings.<br>
