[governance] New questionnaire on the improvement of the IGF

[Tijani BEN JEMAA]

I fully agree with you Anriette.

 

The participation of the developing counties people is still very small
because of the travel and accommodation cost. 

As for the IGF themes, we do need to have them more development oriented.
Last year, a first step was accomplished, and we need to continue and even
enhance this approach.

 

So, I encourage all developing countries members of this list to fill in the
questionnaire highlighting the 2 concerns above, and send it individually. I
also hope that those from developed countries support this approach in their
individual response to the questionnaire. I’m sure the IGC one will be in
the same direction.

Dear Jeremy and all

 

It will be good to get an IGC response to this. But I also think it is

ESSENTIAL for individuals on this list, and organisations represented on

this list, to send in individual responses as well.

 

It is especially important that people from developing countries

respond.  There is huge concern with increasing developing country

participation and with increasing the IGF's coverage of development

issues, so the voices of people from developing countries, and people

from everywhere working with development issues, are particularly important.

 

Anriette
