[governance] IGF workshop: Internet for All (v 2.0)

[Parminder]

Hi All

 

I will submit the revised workshop proposal 'Internet for All - Exploring a
Rights-based Perspective" as submitted to this list by by Karen/ Michael,
tomorrow to the IGF secretariat. Before doing so I will discuss the changes
proposed by Sivasubramanian offline with him, along with other working group
members.   Thanks.

Hello All

I came across this news item about Amnesty's possible participation to
emphasize human rights on the Internet as at the IGF, Hyderabad

http://www.internet20.org/entry/amnesty-decries-possible-curbs-on-internet-s
ays-time-for-bloggers-to-stand-up-for-their-rights/

Why not write to Amnesty (if they are amenable to the ideas of the IG
Caucus) and various prominent groups, apart from working through Dyanamic
Coaltion Team Leaders ? 

The IG Caucus needs to come up with something like a "Declaration of Rights
to the Internet and Rights on the Internet" and have it voted in, adopted by
the participants in a main session.

We are also exploring other co-sponsors and at least one UN organization has
expressed interest. One developing country government has also given
informal consent to cosponsor which will be confirmed in a few days.
