> Izumi Hello, Hello all
>
> Personally, I have no comment to make because the proposal is interesting.
> This approach will also allow us to quickly assess the IGF process and the
> ins and outs of the various initiatives in relation to this process.
>
> This is a very good opportunity at this workshop we can have hot exchanges
> on sectoral dynamics at national, subregional and regional levels. We need
> each other to make us wait efficiently.
>
> Let me also inform us that in October 2012 the DRC will host the XIV Summit
> of the Francophonie. Would it not also a good opportunity that global civil
> society is this? This means taking advantage of every opportunity for our
> visibilty. This is a suggestion.

>> Proposal for IGF Workshop

>> Question 1: Title of proposed workshop.
>> Quo Vadis IGF – or Evolution of IGF
>>
>> Question 2: Please provide a concise description of the proposed workshop.
>> IGF is now in the second phase and “improvements” are mandated by the
>> UN General Assembly. To fill this mandate, CSTD Working Group to the
>> Improvement of the IGF was established in 2010 and tasked to publish
>> its report by March 2011. The WG came up with the final report in
>> March 2012. This report will be presented to the CSTD Session in May
>> and further discussions are scheduled to take place at UN ECOSOC and
>> General Assembly.
>> This workshop will examine the substance of the CSTD WG Report and
>> share different views by different actors on the IGF improvements and
>> their implementations. It will discuss the following major issues:
>> Shaping the Outcome of IGF Meetings, Working Modalities, and Funding
>> among others.
>> Though the basic nature of IGF as a non-binding forum has not been
>> challenged, the WG Report proposes to enhance the impact of the IGF,
>> with outcome documentation that includes messages that map out
>> converging and diverging opinions on given questions clearly. On
>> Funding, the WG could not reach full consensus: with Civil Society
>> proposing more robust funding including the use of UN regular budget,
>> while some others supported to stay with the current voluntary
>> funding.
>> How the actual “improved” IGF remain relevant will be the central
>> focus of this workshop.

>> Taking stock and Way Forward
>> Question 3a:?
>> Taking Stock and the Way Forward in general, but not to the specific
