<p>Hi Renata,</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>I just wanted to add something on the on-going conversation about remote participation. I'm going out on a limb and assume that the concept of remote participation that you all were referring to is in relation to remote hubs and how distant participants
(who are unable to attend IGF meetings) would be able to remotely attend the meetings. Please correct me if I'm mistaken on this assumption. Anyways, a couple of years ago, Marilia Maciel, Raquel Gatto, Rafik D, Ginger P and myself were part of the IGF
Remote Participation Working Group (If I might have forgotten anybody - my apologies) and the goal was to make remote participation accessible. The remote hubs were established and even funded in some countries as an outreach initiative. We do have a Facebook
page called IGF Remote Participation Working Group. You can search it. The page will kind of give you an overview and there are initiatives on remote participation that have been established since 2010. It has not been updated since 2011and I still get notifications. But
if it is something that you would like to continue working on, that should not be a problem, especially if Ginger is also taking a lead on it. </p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>Thanks!</p>

<br>
It is great to see these ideas, please keep suggestions coming.<br>
<br>
A Best Practices Forum on Remote Participation could be a way to<br>
discuss these ideas and create recommendations, also referring to the<br>
previous existing great work by the Dynamic Coalition on Accessibility<br>
and others.<br>
<br>
How about we think about this for IGF2017? Bianca Ho and I thought<br>
about this and would be great to hear your thoughts.<br>
<br>
Best,<br>
<br>
Renata<br>
