> >Shirin Ebadi, 2003 peace Nobel prize winner, accepted the proposal
> >from WSIS CS Human Rights Caucus to propose her as a speaker for
> >Summit opening. For the HR caucus, having Shirin Ebadi speaking
> >would be the strongest symbol that the information society should be
> >built on human rights and social justice foundations.

> >The HR caucus has asked Shirin Ebadi if she would be willing to
> >speak after having seen the first list of proposed speakers
> >circulated on Sept. 30. (with Adama Samassekou and Renata Bloem
> >proposed as possible speakers for opening).
> >
> >Apparently, we are now compelled to propose Shirin Ebadi directly to
> >ITU, since the "selection committee" has already sent its list.

> >We would be very pleased however to include support from other
> >caucuses and organizations to Shirin Ebadi proposal. You certainly
> >remember that Shirin Ebadi was considered by CS as a whole to speak
> >at the opening ceremony of the Geneva summit, but at that time, she
> >was not available because she was receiving her prize in Oslo.

> >If you want to support this nomination, please sent a message to me
> >(marzouki at ras.eu.org) as soon as possible. Caucuses or individual
> >organizations are most welcome.
