Hi,

A quick word of encouragement for Marila to draft a fourth possible a2k theme, can't hurt right.

But in general I am fine with Jeremy's distillation of three workable themes

Hi Jeremy,

I did not suggest it as a forth theme, since you said that we generally only put forward three topics. If you guys believe that a fourth theme should be added, I would be happy to draft a text. If three themes seem to be the best way to go, I would like to ask us to *really* make A2K present in all discussions as you suggested. For that, we will need to carefully think about the approach and the names of speakers for the main sessions, who could link A2K with NN, transborder issues, etc. Of course, workshop proposals would be also important to reach a more rounded understanding of these interplays.

Marília

While I agree with your approach that makes A2K a transversal issue, I believe it is very important that we go beyond words and really mainstream it on the debates.
Marilia and Ian, I'm not sure from your comments if you are both saying that you want to see us putting forward a separate fourth theme (since I don't see anyone suggesting that we should remove one of the existing three themes).  Could you clarify and, if that is what you are saying, perhaps suggest some text?
