[governance] IGF information

[Janna Anderson]

All,

Imagining the Internet will have a group of young people at WTPF/WSIS in Geneva Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday doing interviews for a video survey we will post here:

http://www.imaginingtheinternet.org – you can also see our previous video event coverage and surveys at this site, for instance from IGF-Kenya - http://www.elon.edu/e-web/predictions/igf_2011/default.xhtml

The team will consist of students Julie Morse, Ryan Greene, Brian Mezerski and Joe Bruno, led by Elon University faculty member Brian Walsh. They hope to be able to visit with CS representatives as well as other people who will be participating in the events of WTPF and WSIS.

They will be asking people five quick questions in order to get a wide range of opinions on access to knowledge and about current and looming issues and challenges and opportunities for the future. We hope you will stop and visit with them.

Thank you to all in advance for taking the time to share your insights with these young people!

Best regards,
Janna

Thanks Nnenna for pushing this further forward.
I will be there from Monday to Friday as IEG Member. I will ask the German delegation (or EU) t help with a meeting room  so that we can continue the "Dubai procedure". For me it is unclear whether non-sector members (including IEG members) have a right to speak. Anyhow, we should try to push that the "Deborah and Friends Paper" (DAFP) becomes part of the negotiations for the final version of the opinions.
And thanks for the update for IGFs in Africa. The European IGF EURODIG is scheduled for June 29/21 in Lisbon/Portugal.

Dear all,


1. For WTPF, I cannot say how many International Expert Group - IEG-  members wll be physically present, eother as members of delegation or as stand alone experts.  I will suggest we still have CS meet-ups.
2. It is possible to request a venue via a delegation, this is what we did at WCIT but to do this, individuals with CS background need to start work before arrival... not just on logistics, but on the content and outcome of the meeting.
3. I think Lea Kasper, Avri Doria, and Deborah Brown are confirmed from IEG.  Could others join forces for a better CS "Principles" representation?
4. I will not be physically present but will be online on Skype (there is a stand by CS chat that goes on concurrently) and the official remote participation channel
5. For those who are interested in what is happening in Africa,  June 18 is Nigeria IGF. July 3 - 5 is West Africa IGF in Abidjan, my home city. July 26 is Kenya IGF. September 11 - 13 is Second Africa IGF, hosted by Government of Kenya and the Kenya ISOC.

Best regards

Nnenna
