[governance] Workshop Proposals - a few days to go

[Anriette Esterhuysen]

Dear all

Here is the description of the workshop I proposed. I have included and
built on Nnenna's suggestions.

Anriette

Proposed title:

"From lessons learnt to good practice: Strengthening accountability and
transparency in MS processes"

Such a workshop could be jointly convened by the three non-governmental stakeholder groups in the IGF and used
to share experiences, raise concerns, and try and identify good practice approaches. We could also discuss the composition of these constituency
groups, including ambiguity around the definitions of the TA community and the challenges that arise at times in CS from having a mix of
organisational members and individual CS activists and analysts.

The outcomes of discussion at the workshop could become an input to the CSTD WG on EC.

The objectives of the workshop could be defined as follows (building on the remarks of Nnenna Nwakanma on the IGC list):


1. Highlight lessons learned from our involvement in multi-stakeholder
processes

2. Explore what has worked or not worked in terms of how stakeholder
groups are defined and represented

3. Build a common understanding on what would constitute sufficient
transparency, openness and inclusion in such processes and discuss
possible principles to work from

4. Propose working methods for going forward

4. Deepen the Enhanced Cooperation discussion and contribute a working
document to the CSTD WG on EC.


Discussion between the three groups could potentially begin in the build
up to the IGF. There is certainly interest on the IGC list to initiate
such discussion. We could also use the opportunity of the next IGF open
consultation to have a face to face discussion.
