> Dear Colleague:
>
> I have recently been commissioned by the Council of Europe, UNECE and the
> Association for Progressive Communications to do some exploratory work
> about
> the possibility of a "code of good practice on public participation,
> access to
> information and transparency in Internet governance."
>
> The CofE, UNECE and APC held a first workshop on this theme during the Rio
> IGF
> meeting, with specific reference to the WSIS principles and to the UNECE
> Aarhus
> Convention (which is concerned with information and participation on
> environmental issues).  The present work aims to build towards discussion
> at
> the Hyderabad IGF in December, but a first stage consultation workshop is
> scheduled for Geneva on the 23rd of May and I will be completing the
> initial
> discussion paper for this by the 12th of May.  The May workshop is
> notified on
> the UNECE website at http://www.unece.org/env/pp/related.htm.
>
> I am writing to members of the Internet Governance Caucus, therefore, to
> ask if
> there is any input which you feel you would like to make to this work
> before
> the May consultation meeting.  I would be particularly interested in any
> thoughts you might have on:
> o       present and desirable levels of (public and multistakeholder)
> participation in internet governance issues;
> o       potential participation principles;
> o       information requirements for participation (and potential tools to
> meet
> these);
> o       and mechanisms which might either facilitate participation or
> oversee
> changes in participation and information arrangements for the future;
> as well as on those aspects of internet governance which you think require
> priority attention where information and participation are concerned.
>
> I would also be very interested in any experiences - good or bad,
> particularly
> from within the internet space but also from outside it - which you think
> might
> be helpful in thinking through options for information, participation and
> transparency in internet governance.
>
> Any thoughts you might be prepared to put forward on these issues, and any
> references, would be most welcome and much appreciated - particularly if
> sent
> to me at david.souter at runbox.com before the 10th of May.  Please also
> don't
> hesitate to email me if you would like to discuss more generally.
