FW: [governance] What happened?

[Carlos A. Afonso]

Yes, Karl, this is part of the rules of any UN event, and we saw it 
being enforced in the IGF Rio quite clearly. Any poster or exhibit in 
the meeting space (which is considered a UN space during the whole 
meeting period) cannot be displayed anywhere unless previously 
negotiated with the UN authorities.

In the meeting itself, the poster was projected on the wall most of the 
time (except during the projection of a documentary), and nothing else 
happened, so in the meeting itself there was no violation of free 
expression whatsoever.
