To do anything serious, it must be done by coherent advocacy groups like APC or IT for Change and others, with the IGC serving as a clearinghouse for coordination when coordination is necessary or possible.  I do not think we can ever expect the IGC to be the action oriented group.  In a sense it is a multi-substakeholder group for Civil Society where various CS trends meet and find their common ground. But it seems the real advocacy emphasis has to come from other more focused groups.

I am happy with this answer and addressed my concerns. It was quite 
important to have it clear since I was elected by the IGC.

Many thanks,
