[governance] Proposed contribution for the Hyderabad programme

[Adam Peake]

Then let's drop evaluation.  Michael has related concerns.

So point 2 would read:


(2) About the taking stock and way forward session: we suggest that this
session be organized in the same "bottom-up" manner as the other main
session workshops and debates.  In light of para 76 of the Tunis Agenda,

     "76. We ask the UN Secretary-General to examine the desirability of the
continuation of the Forum, in formal consultation with Forum participants,
within five years of its creation, and to make recommendations to the UN
Membership in this regard."

it is important that a review  [and evaluation DELETED] of the IGF 
begins promptly and be conducted in an inclusive and transparent 
consultative process involving all stakeholders.

The Civil Society Internet Governance Caucus organized a workshop on "The
role and mandate of the IGF" at IGF, Rio, and is organizing another with the
same title at IGF, Hyderabad,
<http://www.intgovforum.org/workshops_08/showmelist.php?mem=71> and we would
be pleased if this workshop, and the IGC, could help support the organizing
of and the discussion during the taking stock and way forward session, in
the same way as the preparation for the other main sessions is being done in
collaboration with some workshop organizers.  We would be pleased to work
with the MAG and all other stakeholders to use this session to begin the
process of review [and evaluation DELETED] of the IGF. It is 
important that a review
[and evaluation DELETED] of the IGF begins promptly and be conducted in an
inclusive and transparent consultative process involving all stakeholders.


Parminder can correct me if I'm wrong (it's late). But I think this 
is all wordsmithing and "friendly amendments" and should not delay 
sending before the 15th.

best,

Adam
