Dear MAG members,
As we discussed during the last conference call pls see the call for
information concerning the concrete actions and decisions that have been
taken as a result of the engagement at the various IGFs.
Pls disseminate this call as wide as possible and encourage organization
provide a brief account.
Thank you
JK
The Internet Governance Forum was created by the World Summit on the
Information Society as a multistakeholder discussion platform on
Internet governance related issues. The goals of the IGF are to provide
a platform for information exchange, identify emerging challenges and
possible solutions to addressing them, provide capacity building,
identify and disseminate best practices and forge partnerships for
concrete actions.
Over the past few years, some critics of the IGF have suggested that no
actions have been taken and that no decisions are made at the IGF - that
it is just a "talk shop".
In order to dissipate those doubts about the "action orientation" of the
IGF it would be useful to collect data about concrete actions and
decisions that have been taken by different stakeholders as a result of
the engagement and discussions of Internet related issues at the various
IGFs (international, regional or national).
In this respect, I would like to invite all of those organizations and
institutions that would be willing to share information, *on a voluntary
basis*, about concrete decisions or actions that have been taken as a
result of engagement during the current mandate of the IGF the 2011,
2012 and 2013 IGFs to do so by sending brief information to the IGF
Secretariat (insert the e-mail address) by 30 June 2014. The Secretariat
will compile all information received and will present a synthesized
report at the Istanbul IGF.
Thank you for your participation
Janis Karklins
Interim Chair of the MAG
