I have scheduled myself to be an observer at the MAG meeting of tomorrow.
I am hopeful that we can start discussions here about how to make future meetings better and more transparent.  

I see that there are sections: security, content, logistics, which kind of corresponds to UN, MAG and Host country.

Will be listening keenly to discussions along these lines.

Best

I think this is a good approach to take.  

I would add that it is probably best to do this without the vitriol and accusations we sometimes see from some of our members/participants.

thanks
