High-level Track Facilitator from Civil Society for the High-level Policy
Sessions -Deadline 15 April 2016
*Importance:* High



Dear Gitanjali,

I am pleased to be able to inform you of the four civil society choices for
High Level Track Facilitators for the WSIS Forum (May 2-6, Geneva) – and to
be able to do so ahead of schedule!

The Civil Society Co-ordination Group (CSCG) put out a call via member
networks and coalitions (Association for Progressive Communications, Best
Bits Coalition, Internet Governance Caucus, Just Net Coalition, Non
Commercial Stakeholders Group of ICANN).  Although the call would have
reached many thousands of individuals and organisations, it elicited only 7
candidate responses. Perhaps contributing factors here were the lack of
travel support – but also perhaps the nature of the sessions and the type
of facilitation required which are outside of the normal experience of many
civil society organisations.

Nevertheless, we did receive very high quality applications, and we are
pleased to advise that our four choices are

*Puneeth  Nagaraj (India)*

*Cisse Kane (Senegal)*

*Klaus Stoll (Ecuador)*

*Amali de Silva-Mitchell (Canada)*

Under separate emails I will forward to you the biographical and contact
details for each of the selected facilitators, so you can follow up
directly. I will also contact them and inform them that I am forwarding
their details to you.

If you need further information, please do not hesitate to contact both
myself and Ginger Paque for further clarification. Please ensure that you
copy Ginger as well, as my email connectivity will be limited between now
and May 2 due to travel commitments.

Sincerely,

Ian Peter

Co-Chair, Civil Society Co-ordination Group (CSCG)
