<div>and I should have added – thanks too to the BestBits people for a really
constructive pre conference get together. Without that we could not have worked
together so well at the main event.</div>

<div>The conference is now over, and many of us now go into travel and long
flights. But before I do, I want to say that during this conference, and the
meeting beforehand, civil society people really worked incredibly well together
– far more so than other constituencies. It was great to work with a group of
such talented and knowledgeable people. There was a high volume of exchange and
consultation between people and speakers on our behalf, with a willingness to
take on other perspectives from the group, to stand down to allow a more
relevant speaker to address a subject etc. great team work.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>As regards the results – this was version 0.1 of this very interesting –
and i think promising – version of multistakeholder consultation. So like all
versions 0.1, it was full of bugs and there are a few changes that should be
made and improvements. I might say a thing or two about that after I have
cleared my head. So I think the process has some lessons for us, and is worth
repeating.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>As regards the outputs – as the civil society statement said, there were
areas of disappointment. I would say personally that I was very angry at last
minute changes made to some sections after the formal processes of drafting and
consolidating text had ended and passed through those committees to the final
approval stage. This was an example of some governmental players being more
equal than others. As one colleague said, more like imperialism than
multistakeholderism, from a party who preaches the religion. Oh well. In time I
might say more about the detail of that.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>But for now – there was much good as well, and it was fantastic to be
involved in this with such a great group of people. All our Brazilian reps, and
also our selected reps on various committees, did a fantastic job – ad it was
privilege to see how well they did. They worked long and hard on our behalf and
deserve a lot of praise. If I start names I will miss someone, but to everyone
who represented us, I must say job extremely well done.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>Now to wind down after three days of intense activities. Great work
everyone, really worthwhile event.</div>
