[governance] IGF Workshop Proposals

[Salanieta T. Tamanikaiwaimaro]

Dear All,

The United Nations Internet Governance Forum Secretariat through the
Multistakeholder Advisory Group (MAG) are now accepting Workshop Proposals
for this year's Internet Governance Forum (IGF).

Visit: http://www.intgovforum.org/cms/

Last year the IGC organised and hosted a Workshop on Multistakeholder
Selection Processes: Accountability and Transparency where it worked
alongside other Stakeholders such as the ICC Basis, ISOC and other
independent persons. The community may wish to explore whether there is
merit on organising a follow up workshop on this matter.

It will also be good to see other IGC Workshops on other issues and matters
important to the community where we could have volunteers to moderate. This
could also mean working alongside other stakeholders etc. It might also be
good to think about having some kind of Civil Society Plenary as a possible
side event to enable all civil society organisations and their
representatives.

The community would also be advised to identify priority areas for advocacy
and identify partners and collaborators. There is also room for civil
society to better organise itself through organised "rapportering", daily
consolidated press releases at the IGF, and volunteers for social media
engagement.

Fully utilising our global presence could also be key. We also need to
identify how we can take priority and focal areas and identify targeted
outcomes etc. Whatever, we decide, we should start the planning and
thinking now. If ever there was a time to have functional and cohesive
advocacy it would be now.

With every best wish,
Sala
