A responsive big vote for YES on 'remote participation'.  It went well for
the past two times, from here, and augurs very well for the future.  

 

Principles of inclusion put into practice!  Need not be perfectly seamless
to be successful.

 

Much appreciated, and at your service as well,

 

LDMF.

STATEMENT

The Internet Governance Caucus supports "Internet Rights and Principles" as
a major theme for IGF-4 in Egypt. This should lead to discourse at the IGF
meetings moving towards the definition and clarification of rights in
relation to the Internet, and how they relate to pre-existing definitions of
human rights. It also includes a space for discussions about the
responsibilities of all parties.

The concept of "rights" continues to stress the importance of openness and
universal access. This framework will continue to emphasize the significant
themes of access to knowledge and development, while adding the important
issues of basic user rights and control to access, content and applications
of their choice, in keeping with current international debates regarding an
"open Internet" and relevant aspects of the often confusing network
neutrality discussions.

The inclusion of "principles" allows for wide discussion of the
responsibilities that the different stakeholders have to each other. It
allows for open examination of the principles that should govern the
Internet, particularly in its commercial facets.

Within the mandate of the IGF and in support of strengthening this
multistakeholder  process, we ask that the IGF Secretariat continue and
expand the use of Remote Participation as a tool for attendance at the IGF
2009 in Egypt as a proven method to include new voices. To that end, we
recommend that the Secretariat recognize the Remote Participation Working
Group as a collaborating organization for the RP at the IGF 2009, especially
in the area of Hub participation, and facilitate the use of the RP resources
from the first planning stages for this 4th meeting.
