<div dir="ltr"><p class="MsoNormal">Dear all,</p><p class="MsoNormal"><br></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Please read this carefully, there are some important
updates. This is an unusual situation, so hope I will be clear enough when
trying to explain it:</p>
<p style="" class="gmail-MsoListParagraph"><span><span>1.<span style="font:7pt "times new roman"">
</span></span></span>Both Analia and myself (Arsene) will be nominating
ourselves for the Civil Society MAG 2017 position. In that sense, since we are
both IGC Co-coordinators, we cannot oversee the nomination process on the IGC list;
we need to recuse ourselves for a short period of time to allow a fair,
transparent selection process.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal">That’s why we have contacted <b>Mrs. Deidre Williams </b>(former
IGC Co-coordinator) to support us during this period until the selection
process is concluded (up to 10 days). This means Deidre will be temporarily IGC
Coordinator.</p>
<p style="" class="gmail-MsoListParagraphCxSpLast"><span><span>2.<span style="font:7pt "times new roman"">
</span></span></span>The CSCG (Civil Society Coordination Group,
where IGC is a member) has decided to temporarily (until we gather more details
and make an appropriate decision) to remove <b>Mr. Wisdom Donkor</b> (current 2<sup>nd</sup>
IGC Rep on CSCG) from the Civil Society (CS) selection discussions given that
we found out that he is representing the Government in the current MAG. </p>
<p class="MsoNormal">In that sense, since he cannot represent both CS and
Government at the same time and to avoid any possible conflict of interest, he
will not represent IGC on the CSCG for now. We will start discussing his case
within the IGC after we have gathered more information for an appropriate
decision. <b>Until then, Deidre Williams will be our 2<sup>nd</sup> IGC
Representative on the CSCG.</b></p><p class="MsoNormal"><br></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">We welcome Deidre (again) and leave it to her to conduct the
consultations and quick start the nomination process.</p><p class="MsoNormal"><br></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Should you have any question or need any clarification on
the above, please do not hesitate to come back to me.</p><p class="MsoNormal"><br></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Arsene </p>
