[governance] possible DC workshop in Rio

[Carlos Afonso]

Hi Jeanette, please see my reply to Ralf just posted. Civil society 
counts on the DCs as the only "alternative" thematic structure, in which 
they participate as well. Some of us here in BR think it would be great 
if civil society people (and others as well of course) knew in advance 
what the proposals are, and have an opportunity for clarifications. The 
official space on Nov 12-15 will be, unfortunately, more ritualistic 
than this -- but maybe with more diffusion in advance of what is being 
proposed we get a better debate. The Nov.11 meeting would be this 
opportunity.
