[governance] CSTD WG Day 2 morning

[Izumi AIZU]

We have started to discuss the substantive elements of 5 broad
categories we agreed yesterday.
Parminder and Anriette started to put CS members idea of shaping
outcome, as follows, which
has been well accepted by mot members of the WG.

And the group members are throwing their ideas/contributions to the
"blank page" on the
screen and moving in a good positive direction. Very little divergence
of opinions, so far.
Some suggested "repository" functions including website enhancement,
outcome oriented
to capacity building and strengthening the participation from
developing countries or youth.

This proposal addresses A Shaping IGF outcomes.

It also addresses concern raised in IGF open consultations that main
sessions are increasingly hard to organise.

1) IGF has two dimensions:  open and exploratory on the one hand, and,
on the other, focused on themes and specific policy challenges

2) Overall modalities of the IGF remains the same: main sessions,
feeder workshops, workshops, round tables, open forums

3) With regard to main sessions, the IGF secretariat and MAG invites
IGF community to identify pertinent key questions. There is precedent
for this. This is more or less how the IGF has been organised in the
past.
Key policy questions were identified for each main theme for the 2011 IGF.

4) Main sessions are structured around these key questions.

5) In response to each main session a report captures the following,
in response to the key policy questions:
- points of convergence
- points of divergence
- points that stood out as requiring further exploration

6) When finalising the reporting of each IGF, the MAG and secretariat
would discuss these reports, and communicate them to other
policy-making institutions.

This report, focused on the main policy questions that were discussed,
will not replace the chairman's summary or the proceedings of the IGF.
