[governance] IGC

[Eric Dierker]

I agree.
 
This is a favorable area of work at the moment and much needed:

I note at outset the comments already flowing back on applications from previous rounds.
Clarity, Innovation, Democracy, value and timetables seem paramount.

On funding sources for the IGC, the UN Democracy Fund has its fourth round of
funding open until the end of the year.  It seems that funding the IGC would
fit well within the funding criteria, including that of "Civil society
empowerment ... activities that strengthen civil society capacities to 
participate in democratic processes, including umbrella organizations and
institutional interfaces between civil society and the State."

I would suggest the IGC consider putting in an application, which I could help
with if others agree.
