I recommend <u><b>that we jointly monitor the Leadership Panel according to the criteria outlined in joint letters so far* (accountable, transparent, inclusive, participatory and effective) and
commit to having a healthy debate in a few months time about whether the
criteria are being met, and to withdrawing our support or taking other action if that is
not the case.
</b></u></div><div><br></div><div>Having read the various statements and views that have been shared, it seems there this is an overall commitment to the IGF and to strengthening it. However, there are different views as to what 'strengthening' it means, and disagreement as to whether the LP will strengthen the IGF, or in fact undermine its bottom-up and inclusive mission. More specifically, it seems there are two overall views:<br></div><ul><li>1) Those that believe that the LP undermines the IGF, its bottom-up nature and will enforce corporate capture. For this reason, they do not want to try it. </li><li>2) Those that have those concerns but are willing to 'give it a go' because of the potential (whether high or minimal) for it not to do the above, and strengthen the IGF in a way that will be beneficial to civil society and the constituencies we serve. This may include those who want to provide nominations because they are concerned that the civil society positions will not be occupied by those who would serve the public interest.</li></ul><div>
It was pointed out that this joint letter was against the Leadership Panel perhaps because it states <i>"It is our view that no separate new structure should be created
outside of the IGF architecture that determines or shapes the IGF, its
processes and procedures. Any body created should be structured as peer
and complementary to the MAG and should not take decisions on behalf of
the IGF community."</i> It is possible to interpret the Leadership Panel as peer and complementary to the MAG. I know not everyone interprets it this way, but it is possible.<br></div><div><br></div><div>I understand that the second view may be considered naive by some, even disingenuous by others, but it is a view that is held and it has been put on the record by some so far who have explained their position to provide nominations, without endorsing the mechanism. The scepticism is fully understood and
the concern that the Panel will not work out as stated, and will do a disservice, is also understood, it seems to me by all. <br></div><div><br></div><div>Among all the disagreement, there is something that unites us. Generally, from what I can gather, we want the IGF to not only be preserved but to be strengthened. Even among those who are concerned about the Leadership Panel making the IGF 'top-down' and changing it fundamentally.<br></div><div><br></div><div>Therefore, as noted above, I suggest that whether we boycott the Panel or not, that we be committed to monitoring the Leadership Panel, including as Farzaneh suggested on another thread, by promoting information sharing and transparency from the civil society representatives to the wider civil society community. We can also commit to having a healthy debate in a few months time about whether the criteria that have been set by various groups and networks so far 'open, transparent, inclusive, participatory, effective' criteria are being met, we can commit to withdrawing our support or taking other action if that is not the case. This would require a strong level of trust and honesty, including among the civil society reps who are successful in their application. It helps, I believe, that so many have put their views and reservations on the record. It might be risky. But I would suggest it might at least lead to less of a fracturing and the potential to work together on whatever issues we commonly agree on in the future. <br></div><div><br></div><div>Best</div><div>Sheetal.<br></div><div><br></div><div><u>*Joint letters/statements - </u>(please add if I've missed any)<br></div><ul><li>Internet Technical Collaboration Group (sent via a thread)</li><li>JNC and IGC (sent via a thread)<br></li><li><a href="https://www.apc.org/en/pubs/association-progressive-communications-remains-committed-strengthening-internet-governance" rel="noreferrer nofollow noopener" target="_blank">APC </a></li><li>Email from ISOC CEO (sent via a thread)<br></li></ul><div>-- <br><div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div style="color:rgb(136,136,136);font-size:12.8px"><font color="#073763" face="verdana, sans-serif"><b><br></b></font></div><div style="color:rgb(136,136,136);font-size:12.8px"><font color="#073763" face="verdana, sans-serif"><b>Sheetal Kumar</b></font></div><div style="color:rgb(136,136,136);font-size:12.8px"><font color="#073763" face="verdana, sans-serif">Head of Global Engagement and Advocacy | GLOBAL PARTNERS DIGITAL</font><div><div><span style="color:rgb(102,102,102)"><font face="verdana, sans-serif" size="1">T: +44 (0)20 3 818 3258</font><font face="verdana, sans-serif" size="1">| </font></span><span style="color:rgb(102,102,102)"><font face="verdana, sans-serif" size="1"><span style="color:rgb(102,102,102)"><font face="verdana, sans-serif" size="1"><font size="1"><font color="#666666"><font face="verdana, sans-serif">Time zone: GMT </font></font></font></font></span></font></span><span style="color:rgb(102,102,102)"><font face="verdana, sans-serif" size="1"><span style="color:rgb(102,102,102)"><font face="verdana, sans-serif" size="1"><font size="1"><font color="#666666"><font face="verdana, sans-serif"><span style="color:rgb(102,102,102)"><font face="verdana, sans-serif" size="1">| </font></span> </font></font></font></font></span>M: +44 (0)7739569514 | </font></span><br><span style="color:rgb(102,102,102)"><span><span style="font-family:verdana,sans-serif"><font size="1">PGP ID: E592EFBBEAB1CF31 </font></span></span><span><span style="font-family:verdana,sans-serif"><font size="1"><span><font face="verdana, sans-serif" size="1">| </font></span>PGP Fingerprint: F5D5 114D 173B E9E2 0603 DD7F E592 EFBB EAB1 CF31</font></span></span><span><span><font face="verdana, sans-serif" size="1">| </font></span><br></span></span></div><div><span style="color:rgb(102,102,102)"><span><br></span></span></div><div><br><span style="color:rgb(102,102,102)"><span></span></span></div><div><br></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div>

<div dir="ltr">It seems to me that Suresh and Parminder have hit the nail on the head together.
<div>The semantics and semiotics of the English language (and I expect of others as well) have been rudely interfered with in this new digital world. Computer programs reject shades of meaning. But those shades still exist inside people's understanding.</div>
<div>To call something a "Leadership" panel in a world where hierarchies are supposed to have been broken down, where the process purports to be flat and inclusive, is surely a mistake?</div>

<div>Dear all, <br>
</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>We did not receive a requisite number of eligible nominations for this process launched last week. We are therefore unable to proceed with the nomination process for the Leadership Panel as CSCG.
<br>
</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>While this does not constitute a boycott, we understand that the level of doubt and concerns around the Leadership Panel may indicate that there isn't the support required.
<br>
</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>We will continue to follow the process and to demand the transparency and diversity required in all areas of the IGF, and to work towards strengthening it in the coming years with the view to realising the true spirit of the IGF's multistakeholder mission.
More on our previous/relevant position here: <a target="_blank" rel="noreferrer nofollow noopener" href="https://www.apc.org/en/pubs/open-letter-interpretation-paragraph-93a-un-secretary-generals-roadmap-digital-cooperation">
https://www.apc.org/en/pubs/open-letter-interpretation-paragraph-93a-un-secretary-generals-roadmap-digital-cooperation</a>. There we say "Multistakeholderism, diversity and inclusion should guide any new structure, building on the IGF legacy thus far and be
the basis for putting the structure in function of shaping the global internet governance agenda in a way that effectively addresses the persistent, exacerbated and new challenges derived from the pandemic situation, including the increasing power of some
parts of the industry, in particular the large technology companies, and the lack of voices from more vulnerable and marginalised groups."</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>We do not want this to be seen as discouragement to anyone planning to nominate themselves. However, as a network, it is clear that we don't have the support or interest to continue with this specific nomination process.

<p>CSCG, and for this process, this includes APC and IGC, will run a nomination process to identify nominees for the two categories:<br>
