[governance] NOMCOM - MAG

[Milton L Mueller]

I love this jargon. "Revenue based community micro-enterprises." Some of
us call that "small business." I do _not_ wish to enter into any debate
about the group's CS credentials or eligibility, it's fine with me. But
you gotta love this.

Parminder,

 

Based on what Rudi has said below and what I understand about the role
of Warnets in Indonesia (a rather unique hybrid of a cybercafe and a
telecentre) I would guess that both he and his association would qualify
as CS (they operate as revenue based community micro-enteprises...

	Thanks a lot, Rudi. We do need more people to volunteer, and
especially from different parts of the world, which may currently be
under-represented. 

	 

	However, I am not clear about your self-declaration which
mentions both private sector and NGO.

	 

	To be a full member of the IGC one has to self-declare oneself
as a civil society person. Such full membership is necessary to hold
caucus appointments, like being on the nomcom.  And as understood by us,
civil society stands in some kind of a distinction vis a vis governments
and governance institutions on one hand, and private / business sector
on the other. This distinction for us is most valid from the point of
view of the principal political identity and representation a person
brings in vis a vis IG policies and advocacy, the arena of activity of
this caucus.  

	 

	So responding to way you have proposed your volunteer-ship as
'from Indonesia private sector' I must seek this clarification from you
whether you affirm yourself to be civil society person, and representing
public interest, and not private and/or business interests, individually
or in aggregation, in terms of your engagement with IG issues. 

	 

	I am sorry if this appears a bit complicated, and I am happy to
give any clarification on this list, or offlist, i.e. in response to an
email send to my id alone. 

	 

	Thanks and Regards

	 

	Parminder
