[Carlos Afonso]

Interesting to know UNESCO has activated an "online platform" for some 
of the Internet governance themes (see below email msg received today 
and an excerpt of the corresponding Web site's front page).

UNESCO opens online platform for planning multi-stakeholder 
implementation of WSIS Plan of Action

UNESCO has now opened an online platform to facilitate initial contacts 
among stakeholders and to launch activities under the Action Lines of 
the Geneva Plan of Action that are in the area of competence of the 
Organization.

This includes the following action lines:

C3: Access to information and knowledge
C7: E-learning and E-science
C8: Cultural diversity and identity, linguistic diversity and local content
C9: Media
C10: Ethical dimensions of the Information Society

[Extracted from the Web page above:]

Geneva Plan of Action: Planning multi-stakeholder implementation
Towards Knowledge Societies
	
The participants of the Consultation meeting of action lines 
moderators/facilitators on 24 February 2006 in Geneva decided that, in 
order to launch activities under each Action Line and facilitate the 
initial contacts among facilitators and participants, that UNESCO should 
be provisionally appointed as the interim focal point for action lines 
falling in its areas of competence.

Through this platform, UNESCO seeks to gather the opinion of those 
interested in these action lines on all aspects related to multi 
stakeholder implementation.

Action Line C3: Access to information and knowledge

Action Line C7: E-learning

Action Line C7: E-science

Action Line C8: Cultural diversity and identity, linguistic diversity 
and local content

Action Line C9: Media

Action Line C10: Ethical dimensions of the Information Society
