Mongi
Academics – ECOSOC adopted
2010/27?
Participation of academic entities on Science and technical areas are
approved in addition to Civil Society.

Belgium
Good compromise
In favor of limiting the number of stakeholders

Markus Kummer
Historical information

Stakeholder definition in 2003
Added Business and Civil Society
International Organizations and Inter-governmental organizations
Reason – there are organizations running the Internet but not involved in IGOs.
In WGIG, in between Geneva and Tunis
New category of stakeholders emerged – academic and technical
community – not fully fallen into other categories, but that’s why
Tunis Agenda included them, but then Diplomats did not want to include
them – so under the Sub-category, but it was clear that they are
separate entity,
Then in IGF, technical community was dealt separately, those managing
the Internet technical operation.
Executive Office – no need to invite IGOs, but “open door” policy, any
IGOs (ITU) and regional ones, OECD – and Arab League all participated.
This arrangement worked well in pragmatic ways.

WSIS Summit gave mandate to UN SG – outside of rules of procedures of
UN, that do not foresee the multistakholders in the UN
Bill Drake – the success of WGIG was that allowed all stakeholders
sitting in the same room and talked.

Chair
WG is WG of Chair
Let’s go back to ECOSOC
It is to make recommendations – WG of Chair
Recommendations will be fed to CSTD for approval.
We will carry, I will drop “advisory”, but it is WG of Chair
Intergovernmental, CS, business group, Academic and Technical
We must agree with four.
