[governance] WG on IGF improvements: 11-13 Jan

[Baudouin Schombe]

Hello,

Yes, I opt for the proposed Marilia. We can participate remotely. But it is not
right to deprive civil society for financial support to participate in
the consultation
phase on Internet governance. I realize more clearly that the statement on WSIS
and the Tunis Commitment are regularly flouted.............

> Dear all,
>
> As you know, the next meeting of the Working group on IGF improvements
> will take place next week, 11 to 13 January. This meeting will be a little
> atypical, as there will be no financial support for civil society
> participation. We were officially told about this last month, a few days
> before holidays. Because of that, Anriette and I will not be able to
> physically participate this time. We will connect through remote
> participation tools. Parminder, Wolfgang and Izumi will attend the meeting
> representing civil society and they will read a statement that expresses
> our disagreement with this lack of support for CS participation.
>
> The chair has published a good and accurate summary of the last meeting:
> http://www.unctad.org/sections/un_cstd/docs/UN_WGIGF2011d14_summary_en.pdf
> We advanced on some important topics, such as MAG and outcomes, but we are
> still lagging behind on others, such as funding and the work of the
> Secretariat.
>
> In spite of the quality of the document, I felt the need to
> "taxonomically" organize the proposals. It helped me to have a more clear
> understanding of where we stand, so I decided to share these personal notes
> here. I have used the broad agreements as "headlines", and under them I
> have copied the related specific proposals, including those that were on
> separate text.
>
> The goal of the next meeting is to go into the real drafting of the
> report. Any comments or suggestions that can help us move forward on this
> delicate exercise will be more than welcome.
>
> Best wishes,
> Marília
