[governance] Fwd: [kictanet] 2011 IGF dates 27 to 30 September

[McTim]

FYI:

Now that the dates are confirmed, here is a bit of a tip from a local.

THERE IS ONLY ONE HOTEL NEARBY.  I really can't emphasize this enough.  It's
called the Tribe Hotel, it's very posh, but you could walk from their to UN
(15 mins, very safe area), or a 5 mins taxi ride.

Your alternative is to stay in a hotel in the CBD, and ride a (IGF bus) or
taxi 2x per day in some pretty nasty traffic.

Don't say you haven't been warned!!

 Dear all,

Dates for the sixth 2011 United Nations Internet Governance Forum
(UN-IGF) have now been confirmed. The IGF will take place on 27th to 30
September 2011 in Nairobi at the UN Gigiri.

We wish to have strong participation of all stakeholders and would
particularly like to encourage industry, civil society and policy makers and
who would bring to it expertise, partnerships, and best practices.

We hope to leverage, build upon, and enrich the 2011 IGF, by extending the
benefits of the IGF programming to begin to build a foundation for young
people within the context of the East African Internet Governance Forum
(EA-IGF) which will prepare them to participate meaningfully and
constructively as IGF youth Ambassadors.



Best


Alice
