Dear IGF Community Members,

-

You may recall that the Working Group on Improvements to the IGF in its
report identified the development of tangible outcomes as a way for the IGF
to continue to perform successfully its intended role of addressing issues
related to public policy in a bottom-up, multistakeholder fashion. The
Working Group stated that "to focus discussions, the preparation process of
each IGF should formulate a set of policy questions to be considered at the
IGF, as part of the overall discussion.


The results of the debates on these questions, with special focus on public
policy perspectives and aimed at capacity-building, should be stated in the
outcome documentation". "The IGF Secretariat and the MAG should reach out
and continue to invite all stakeholders to be more actively involved in the
preparation of the IGF, including by identifying pertinent key policy
questions around which main sessions for the IGF will be structured."


This recommendation provides an excellent opportunity for the IGF community
to engage in the process of shaping and formulating the questions that will
guide the discussions during the various main / focus sessions. Therefore,
the IGF Secretariat is inviting the community to share its views on the
type of public policy questions that could be addressed and discussed at
the 9th Annual Internet Governance Forum meeting's main/focus sessions.


Each stakeholder is invited to submit no more than three (3) questions for
each of the following sessions:

- Policies Enabling Access, Growth and Development on the Internet

- Towards a Common Understanding of Network Neutrality

- Evolution of Internet Governance Ecosystem and the Role of the IGF

- IANA Functions: NTIA's Stewardship Transition and ICANN's Accountability
Process

- Taking Stock / Emerging Issues

Questions will be compiled and published by the Secretariat, and provided
to main session organisers as suggested discussion questions. Please note
that organisers of main / focus sessions may need to synthesize and combine
questions due to time constraints. Should a contributed policy questions
not make it into main session programming, the IGF Secretariat reminds all
interested stakeholders that questions can be asked on the day in
real-time. The deadline for submitting your questions is 4 August 2014.
Questions should be sent to discussion_questions at intgovforum.org.
