["Kleinwächter, Wolfgang"]

This is a great choice and will help to bring gender balance in both ceremonies.

Betreff: [governance] CSCG nominations for civil society speakers at IGF
 
Below are the two nominations from Civil Society Coordination Group for speakers for this years IGF opening and closing ceremonies. They were chosen from a field of 20 names submitted from various civil society coalitions, and have been forwarded to the IGF Secretariat. I must say that any of the 20 names submitted could have represented us admirably, and that it was a tough decision for the CSCG members to come up with 2 names.

Joana Varon (Brazil) - opening ceremony - joana at varonferraz..com

Nadine Moawad (Lebanon) - closing ceremony - nadine at apcwomen.org


For those who don't know them,


Joana Varon Ferraz is a researcher and project coordinator at the Centre for Technology and Society from Fundação Getulio Vargas in Rio de Janeiro

Nadine Moawad is a Lebanese feminist activist and grasssroots worker who leads Association for Progressive Communication (APC)'s sexual 
rights work. 


We commend them both as informed excellent communicators to represent civil society. They have both been informed of their nominations.




Ian Peter (Independent Chair, Civil Society Coordination Group)
