[bestbits] IGF Best Practice Forum on Gender: Access

[Wisdom Donkor]

I put forward my displeasure as well and I fully support the response of
Lynn. Looking at the complex nature of my region Africa and considering the
fact that the region has become the center of development globally
(connecting the next billion) of which gender is one of the key subjects to
addressing the gender disparities or imbalances of the region. So putting
out such statements trivialises the gender processes within and outside of
MAG. Such statements needs to be discouraged in the strongest terms and
rather work together for the course of humanity.

Kind regards,
