The policies that shape the Internet impact not only the development of
the technologies themselves, but also the realization of internationally
agreed human rights, social equity and interdependence, cultural
concerns, and both social and economic development. Our vision is that
Internet governance should be inclusive, people centered and development
oriented. Our contributions to the various forums relevant to Internet
governance, will strive to ensure an information society which better
enables equal opportunity and freedom for all.</p>
<p><strong>Mission</strong><br>
The mission of the Internet Governance Caucus (IGC) is to provide a
forum for discussion, advocacy, action, and for representation of civil
society contributions in Internet governance processes. The caucus
intends to provide an open and effective forum for civil society to
share opinion, policy options and expertise on Internet governance
issues, and to provide a mechanism for coordination of advocacy to
enhance the utilization and influence of Civil Society (CS) and the IGC
in relevant policy processes.</p></div></blockquote><div dir="ltr" data-setdir="false">Regards</div><div dir="ltr" data-setdir="false"><br></div><div dir="ltr" data-setdir="false">Imran Ahmed Shah<br></div><div><br></div>

<div>Hi Ayden, </div>

</div>
<div>Thank you so much for putting this together! Just to note,
the members of IGC are individuals, acting in personal
capacity, who subscribe to the charter of the caucus (see: <a shape="rect" href="https://igcaucus.org/membership/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">https://igcaucus.org/membership/</a>).
Also, as far as I understand the coalition came into being
around the WSIS, not afterwards. I've amended the text to
reflect this - but if a longer-standing member can advise that
would be great. Also, we can include a link to the website.<br clear="none">

<div>Hi all,<br clear="none">

<div><br clear="none">
</div>
<div>I mentioned in my previous email to this list that it
might be helpful to affix a short description of who 'we'
are so that the recipients of our statement, if it is sent,
better understand who has written to them. I wanted to
propose the following text, with the very big caveat that I
have not been subscribed to this mailing list for very long,
so I may well have the history wrong and not fully
understand how this list came to be. I would appreciate it
if you could keep me honest by editing this description if I
do have something incorrect! Thanks.<br clear="none">
