I am pleased to announce the following selections for the Brazil
Committees on behalf of the Civil Society Coordination Group. Many
thanks to all the organisations and individuals who co –operated in
this collaborative effort and to those who contributed to a very
talented list of names for consideration
High Level Committee

Biographical details appear below.
The representatives were chosen from a field of 33 applications for
HLC and 24 applications for EMC, drawn from a widely disseminated call
for nominations across various civil society networks, including IGC,
Best Bits, APC, NCSG, Diplo, and associated civil society networks ,
and including nominations from other CS individuals as well. No
nominations were denied full consideration.
The full list of candidates was posted on the main civil society lists
some time ago (let me know if you need a copy). We thank all the
volunteers who put their names forward – this was an incredibly
talented field and making decisions on final candidates was
subsequently a significant challenge.
The selections were made by a Nomcom consisting of Virginia Paque
(Diplo Foundation), Jeremy Malcolm (Best Bits), Chat Garcia Ramilo
(APC) and Robin Gross (NCSG). Ian Peter was an independent non voting
Chair.
We realise that some aspects of these selections will be
controversial. We have attempted to find a balance (among the
candidates who best fit our criteria for selection) between such
factors as gender, geography, advocacy, knowledge, expertise, and
constituency. Geography in particular was a challenge in finalising
our HLC candidates – but we did note very strong support from a number
of prominent third world centred organisations and individuals for
Louis Pouzin, and trust that the perspectives and advocacy he will
bring to the discussions will ensure that important issues of concern
to many members of civil society are not neglected.

a former diplomat with a professional and academic background in
international law, diplomacy, and information technology. In 1992, he

of Diplomatic Studies in Malta. In 2002, after more than ten years of
successful work in training, research, and publishing, the Unit
evolved into DiploFoundation.
Dr Kurbalija directs online learning courses on ICT and diplomacy and
lectures in academic and training institutions in Switzerland, the

Louis Pouzin is one of the pioneers in computer communications and the

Internet development. He has received ACM SIGCOMM and IEEE Internet

Japan and is a former co ordinator of the Internet Governance Caucus.
Marília Maciel works as a professor of Intellectual Property Law and

Integration from the Federal University of Santa Maria and a Law
