> you could go to town on the total imbalance of perspectives evident in choice of stakeholder representatives in every single category. Nice to see a few good civil society reps (along with some strange inclusions in that category), but the overall balance of the attendees is dominated by western perspectives (100% of academia, over 90% of business, etc).
