Dear Nnenna,

You are covering the key topics in a very short time. I agree with your 
approach.

I will make a request however. Could you mention the one billion people 
with disability in the world (80% of whom live in developing countries) 
in one sentence please under points 3 or 4? I recall you mentioned 
disability at the IGF in Bali and that was very welcome.

Kind regards,
Gunela Astbrink
