Tengo entendido que ell proceso de selección para el CSCG independent chair fue por discusión y consenso entre el grupo de coordinación que tiene representantes de diversos grupos de la sociedad civil (no fue una elección). Una forma de lograr mayor representación en los grupos globales es de seguir postulándonos para posiciones, y trabajando activamente. Lamentablemente, aunque el espanol es (según mis investigaciones) el idioma materno más hablado en el mundo, no es el idioma común--el inglés sigue siendo el idioma entendido por más gente. A veces es más importante comunicarnos que hablar nuestro idioma proprio, o por lo menos, así pienso yo. Para comunicarnos con un grupo grande multilingual, el inglés a menudo resulta ser el idioma más práctico. De todos modos, yo sigo a la orden para llevar los temas de importancia para LAC y los hispanoparlantes. No hesitan de contactarme en las listas o por email privado.

The news feed algorithm's outsize influence has given rise to a strand of criticism that treats it as if it possessed a mind of its own--as if it were some runic form of intelligence, loosed on the world to pursue ends beyond the ken of human understanding. At a time when Facebook and other Silicon Valley giants increasingly filter our choices and guide our decisions through machine-learning software, when tech titans like Elon Musk and scientific laureates like Stephen Hawking are warning of the existential threat posed by A.I., the word itself--algorithm--has begun to take on an eerie affect. Algorithms, in the popular imagination, are mysterious, powerful entities that stand for all the ways technology and modernity both serve our every desire and threaten the values we hold dear. - - - --Lauren-- Lauren Weinstein (lauren at vortex.com): http://www.vortex.com/lauren Founder: - Network Neutrality Squad: http://www.nnsquad.org - PRIVACY Forum: http://www.vortex.com/privacy-info Co-Founder: People For Internet Responsibility: http://www.pfir.org/pfir-info Member: ACM Committee on Computers and Public Policy Lauren's Blog: http://lauren.vortex.com Google+: http://google.com/+LaurenWeinstein Twitter: http://twitter.com/laurenweinstein Tel: +1 (818) 225-2800 / Skype: vortex.com I have consulted to Google, but I am not currently doing so -- my opinions expressed here are mine alone. _______________________________________________ pfir mailing list http://lists.pfir.org/mailman/listinfo/pfir -- Sivasubramanian M -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

I strongly suggest that we look for a Latin American or Caribbean replacement for her. If you have the time, interest and energy, think about it, talk about it, and analyse whether you or a colleague would be a good candidate. This is particularly important because I have relocated from Venezuela to the USA for family medical reasons.

In-Reply-To: References: Message-ID: Hi I'd like to nominate myself as LAC participant. I'm an ICANN53 fellow, LACRALO participant and a graduate from the Brazilian Internet School of Governance of CGI.br in the 1st class (2014). Recently I've also joined NCUC, Giganet, AIR, IAMCR and Internet Society Brazil (official membership). I've also been recently to the UN in the WSIS+10 event and the CTEC event last 17th. I am geographically nearer the Caribbean than subtropical Latin American (São Paulo, Rio de Janeiro), however I've done my doctorate in Catholic University of São Paulo and my research group has representatives both in SP and Rio. Also, me and other interested parties in Internet Governance in Brazil articulate ourselves via an online group of 600+ members, a national mobile messaging group of +/-50 and a Northeastern Brazil chapter with +/-20 members. I was subscribed in all IGF lists the last edition - including as observer, I've participated in some and also a few online meetings. I've also been to IGF as a former student of CGI.br representative of the Northeastern Brazil region. I'm also an university teacher in a new IT Campus, I have some flexibility to travel. I'm mainly trying to engage students in research in Internet Governance and seeking paths to continue studying the topics myself. As for civil society engagement, I've been a project coordinator and volunteer in ONGs, a writer/reviewer for activism blogs and tech journalism media and I've acted towards policy development for education and technology in public schools and universities.

All the best, Renata Aquino Ribeiro ------------- From: Constance Bommelaer Date: 8 January 2016 at 17:41:38 GMT To: Internet Policy External Subject: [Internet Policy] Call for Applications - Internet Technical Community Representation in the IGF MAG Dear Colleagues, Please share the call below through your networks. Best regards, Constance ----------- Call for Applications for Internet Technical Community Representation in the Internet Governance Forum Multistakeholder Advisory Group 2016 (MAG) The purpose of the Multistakeholder Advisory Group (MAG) is to advise the U.N. Secretary General on the programme and schedule of the Internet Governance Forum meetings. The MAG comprises of 55 Members from governments, the private sector and civil society, including representatives from the academic and technical communities. Those nominated should expect to attend two virtual MAG meetings per month as well as typically three face to face meetings per year. More information. The Internet Society (ISOC) is facilitating a process leading to recommendations from the Internet Technical Collaboration Group for participation in the 2016 MAG of the Internet Governance Forum (IGF). A Nominating Committee (NOMCOM) consisting of senior members of the Internet technical community is currently being formed and will provide nominations to be transmitted to the United Nations for consideration. Candidates should be aware that nominations may or may not be accepted by the UN. Individuals interested in being suggested by the Nominating Committee are invited to complete the Nomination Form in full to provide responses to a set of Questions that are specific to the Internet technical community. Both the form and the answers to questions should be returned to information.itcg at gmail.com by 2359 UTC on Friday, January 22nd. Applications with incomplete responses to either set of questions will not be considered. ISOC will transmit the names of nominees to the United Nations no later than February 1st. More details on the nomination process can be found here . Both sets of questions should be answered completely. Responses need not necessarily be lengthy, but they must be sufficiently content-full that the Nominating Committee can accurately judge from them the extent and specifics of your background. If the applicant believes that an existing CV or biographical sketch would contribute to the Nominating Committee's understanding of the candidacy, such a document may be provided in either PDF form or in the form of a link. In terms of attendance at physical meetings, potential funding for MAG members (selected applicants) is available through the IGF "Participant funding" program outlined at http://www.intgovforum.org/cms/mag/2144-eligibility-criteria-for-funding-a-p articipant. Note that this program is targeted only toward participants from Least Developed Countries, Developing Countries or Transitional Economies.

Since we encourage discussion by as many civil society groups and members as possible, I suggest that you let any CS IG groups/lists you belong to --know that you have submitted your nomination --understand why you would be a good candidate --understand what you would like to accomplish as a member of the MAG --any other information they have requested. CS groups should be discussing best candidates, and who they would like to endorse, to help create a 'shortlist' for consideration of nominees. The CSCG reviews endorsements sent to them, and sends a list of suggested candidates to the IGF Secretariat and UNDESA. UNDESA makes final decisions based on the complete list of nominations, and endorsements from the CSCG and other CS groups--remember, CSCG does not include all CS IG groups. Discussions are underway in the MAG, and with the IGF Secretariat and UNDESA to clarify the process, and the number and characteristics of new MAG members being sought. We hope to have more information soon, but discussions of process should not slow the nomination process, especially since our time is very short.

Will appreciate your support, comments and advice; please do get in touch with me if you have any question. My MAG nomination description I would like to apply for a sloton the 2016 MAG. I am a civil society young leader (age 25), from the war-tornregion of the Democratic Republic of Congo. I am also native Swahili speaker,fluent in French and English, and write a blog in both English and French. Moreover,in 2015 I was awarded the Mandela Washington Fellowship for Young AfricanLeaders by the US State Department. Besides winning that Fellowship I have alsoreceived several other recognitions for my work and engagement with youngpeople in Africa and worldwide.  I am the Executive of RudiInternational, the only Congolese non-profit organization working on childonline protection and women’s participation in ICT issues. Since 2012, myorganization has convened an annual ITU’s Girls in ICT day events and is amember organization that is part of their Child Online Protection (COP)initiative across Africa. I feel that there is an underrepresentation among Civil Society members for the Francophone Africancountries and hope to add my voice to those advocating for the underrepresentedfrom these African countries and in that way promote a more multilingual IG. Iam a strong advocate for remote participation as it has allowed those whocannot physically attend the global meetings to engage and participate. I amalso an advocate for increasing the youth participation at the IGF and forincluding more sessions on child online protection and women’s involvement inICT, which continues to be a barrier in many African countries due to customsand cultures. As the Internet Society states, the Internet is for everyone andwe need to make sure that everyone has the ability to participate. I have been involved in the IGFecosystem since 2011 when I attended my first IGF, as a youth participant andspeaker on a panel on child online safety organized by UNICEF, ECPATInternational and the ITU. From there, I felt the need to speak out on issuesthat young people and mostly children in developing countries are facing asthey try to get online.  In 2012 I was acceptedinto the Diplo Foundation’s Internet Governance courses. Since then, I havebeen involved in both regional, national, and Global IGFs.  While in the US in 2015, I spent my own fundsto travel to Washington DC to participate in the IGF-USA.  I am currently advocating for DRC to have itsfirst national IGF. I have been on the organizing Committee for thesub-regional level of the Central African IGF in 2013 in Kinshasa (DRC); I alsotook part in the 2013 African IGF. I applied and received fundingfrom the Internet Society to be an ISOC Ambassador to the IGF 2015 in JoaoPessoa Brazil and blogged about my experience in Diplo’s daily newsletter. Additionally, I am an activemember of several Civil society Internet governance lists such as the YCIG,IGC, BestBits, etc. I have been an ICANN fellow in2014 and will be one in 2016 (Marrakesh). I am an active member of the Non Commercial Stakeholders Group (NCSG)where I helped translate their brochure in French (NCUC) and also help topromote ICANN in the Francophone world.  ------------------------ *Arsène Tungali* Co-founder & Executive Director, Rudi international Founder & Director, Mabingwa Forum Tel: +243993810967 Goma, Democratic Republic of Congo 2015 Mandela Washington Felllow (YALI) - ISOC IGF Ambassador - Blogger - Child Online Protection - ICANN Fellow.

I have been involved with Internet Governance (IG) since 2008 and have been working to strengthen the links that bring Latin America and the Caribbean (LAC) together since the early 1990s. I have attended every IGF meeting since Hyderabad in 2008 (Nairobi 2011 virtually), and also all of the regional - Latin America and Caribbean Preparatory Meeting for the IGF (LACIGF), and sub-regional – Caribbean IGF, since 2009. My attendance at these meetings was due to a broad range of funders to all of whom I am very grateful. - Within the IGF environment I have worked, and am working, particularly with the Dynamic Coalition for Access and Disability (DCAD), with the MAG Remote Participation Working Group, and the now dormant Coalition Dynamique pour la Diversité Linguistique I have contributed to the work of the Dynamic Coalition on Internet Rights and Principles and Dynamic Coalition on Public Access in Libraries - I follow discussions on Bestbits and the Justnet Coalition Forum, as well as on the Internet Governance Caucus (IGC) list, and in other areas where IG is discussed. I try to be aware of those issues that unite civil society, as well as of those issues about which there are strongly divergent opinions - For the last two years I have been one of two Co-coordinators of the IGC. - In 2014 I had the honour to be selected as the speaker from civil society at the opening ceremony of the IGF in Istanbul. - I was invited, in several different capacities, to be part of the pilot Stanford Deliberative Poll organised for this year’s IGF - I have good relationships across the group that identifies itself as civil society and also with those belonging to other constituencies. This is useful because the MAG should finally aim for consensus across all of its constituent groups. - My own priorities are in involving ordinary end users in the IG process despite barriers of disability, language and culture, gender, education, geographic location, etc. This brings with it a strong interest in the facilitation and improvement of remote participation. Thank you all for your consideration Best wishes Deirdre -- “The fundamental cure for poverty is not money but knowledge" Sir William Arthur Lewis, Nobel Prize Economics, 1979 -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

It seemed best to keep the call for nominations short and simple, but I agree with you that an outline of the responsibilities involved is timely. These are the duties as described on the website. Duties of Coordinators The first and most important duty of the coordinator(s) is to facilitate the discussions and enable the members of the caucus to reach consensus whenever possible. In cases where the IGC cannot reach full consensus, the two coordinators together can make a decision on rough consensus subject to an appeal as described below. The coordinators are also responsible for defining and assigning any other tasks that need to be carried out in support of the caucus such as list management, web site management or support of other tools. These decisions will require the advice of the membership and can be appealed to the appeals team. http://igcaucus.org/charter I would add from my own experience the need for patience, tact, common sense and a fair amount of time. Because the coordinators need to be neutral it is also necessary sometimes to abstain from taking part in exciting discussions. The IGC face to face meeting in Joao Pessoa was small but active with proposals for changes coming from Arsene and Renata. Sonigitu had also indicated that he had suggestions, but unfortunately missed the meeting. These ideas will be issues for discussion this year.

I am nominating myself and willing to serve as Co-coordinator of IGC for this period. I have more than the required skills and expertise to function very well in this capacity. Working as an IT consultant has equipped me to understand the rudiments of IT technologies (software, hardware and humanware). Have been privileged to facilitate international online discussions (FIN4AGRIC); served as social media coordinator of remote IGF events in Calabar, Nigeria; joined (NCSG) and contributes at several webinars and a strong advocate from remote participation. Have taken several courses including but not limited to IT, education, management, climate change, policy and implementation which has widened my knowledge to function (DiploFoundation, Worldbank Institute, YaliNetwork etc). I possess listening hear, patience, ability to resolve conflicts, task prioritization, time management, and sense of judgment. In order to be successful in any position and achieve results, there's need for strong relationship. As a coordinator for IGC for 2016 - 2018, I will strive to build strong relationship among IGC Members that will ensure strong discussion and early consensus while ensuring everyone voice and needs is given attention. I seek your support all. Best regards.

For seventeen years, the Institute has brought together top early career communications scholars, media lawyers and regulators, internet governance experts, and freedom of expression and human rights activists from countries around the world to discuss the effects of technology and policy from a global and multidisciplinary perspective. The Summer Institute provides participants with an intensive two week interdisciplinary curriculum that combines expert instruction from media policymakers and scholars with hands-on activities such as stakeholder mapping, policy analysis, group case studies, and participant presentations. The 2016 Annenberg-Oxford Summer Institute seeks applicants whose research or work is related to the relationship between international media laws and national jurisdictions, online censorship and surveillance, the role of the media in political change and conflict, strategic communications and propaganda, online extremism and social media, and global internet governance processes. Applications are welcomed from students studying communications, sociology, political science, international relations, area studies, anthropology, information studies, and related disciplines. Practitioners working in media, law, policy, regulation, and technology are also encouraged to apply. Preparing, motivating, and supporting students and practitioners who aspire to pursue a career in media policy, the Annenberg-Oxford Institute endeavors to broaden and expand the pool of talented young scholars engaged in media studies and to connect these individuals to elite scholars and practitioners from around the world. The Institute's alumni are a vibrant group who continue to engage in the program, collaborate through network ties, and have become leaders at the top national and international nonprofits, advocacy organizations, government agencies, corporations, and academic institutions. Recent past Institutes have included participants from India, Kenya, Brazil, the Philippines, Jordan, Turkey, Pakistan, China, Italy, Israel, Colombia, Iran, Myanmar, South Sudan, and Nigeria. The application for the 2016 Summer Institute is now open and can be found here (http://bit.ly/1RpQ5ib). The deadline for all applications is Monday April 4, 2016 at 5:00 PM EST.

In a Recommendation, the Committee of Ministers representing the 47 Council of European member States, issued a set of network neutrality guidelines pointing out that Internet traffic should be treated equally, without discrimination, restriction or interference irrespective of the sender, receiver, content, application, service or device. https://wcd.coe.int/ViewDoc.jsp?Ref=CM/Rec%282016%291&Language=lanEnglish&Ver=original&BackColorInternet=C3C3C3&BackColorIntranet=EDB021&BackColorLogged=F5D383 Happy to see that many of the ideas suggested in this 2013 Report and discussed over the past years have been included in the CoE Recommendation on Net Neutrality, although IMHO the exceptions to NN could have been framed in better terms Best regards, Luca ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Luca Belli, PhD Researcher, Center for Technology & Society, FGV Rio de Janeiro Chercheur Associé, Centre de Droit Public Comparé, Université Paris 2 Founder and Co-chair, IGF Dynamic Coalition on Network Neutrality Co-founder and Co-chair, IGF Dynamic Coalition on Platform Responsibility ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ ************************************************** This email and any files transmitted with it are confidential and intended solely for the use of the individual or entity to whom they are addressed.

In January 2005 in responding to the work of the World Summit on the Information Society (WSIS), the Caribbean Community (CARICOM) Secretariat requested the assistance of the CTU in developing regional policies for Internet governance. The CTU adopted a multistakeholder approach to the task and convened the first Caribbean Internet Governance Forum (CIGF) in September 2005 in Georgetown, Guyana. This was historic in that the Caribbean became the first region in the world to convene an Internet Governance Forum. Since that time, the CIGF has been convened annually to enable the CTU to coordinate the development and evolution of this Policy Framework which was first issued in January 2009. http://www.ctu.int/wp-content/uploads/2015/07/CIGPF-Issue-2.0.pdf Caribbean Internet Governance Policy Framework (Issue 2.0) Last September the 11th Caribbean IGF was held in Port of Spain, Trinidad.

Thank you Parminder. I've shared the article with colleagues in the Caribbean. One thing that concerns me though - in all the discussion about "free" services it seems to be generally ignored, by both sides of the argument, that the service is not accessible unless the user has access to an appropriate communications device, a subscription to an ISP of some type, and a source of electricity. It is surely dangerous to assume that potential users already have these things. I tried to offer reminders of this in appropriate workshops in Joao Pessoa, but I'm not sure that anyone paid attention :-) I would be very interested to learn what other people think.

The Caribbean IGF is their prerogative, the result of their persistent hard work. They work miracles with a tiny budget and a tiny staff. I shoved my oar in (I've done it in IGF plenaries as well) because we in the Caribbean are very proud of them and what they have achieved.

For example, when we talk about free basics in Kenya, we base the arguments on current users. Mobile penetration is nearly 90%, and a feature phone that can support free basics cost less than $10, a price within the reach of everybody. Yes, everybody. Even beggars on the streets have this phones. There are also very innovative energy solutions in these parts of the world. That $10 feature phone would probably come with a solar charger bundled together, or you would need about $5 to get a solar charger.

It's within that context that I've been thinking about "free basics". If it is necessary to "connect the next billion" then it seems to me that they must be currently un-connected. I'm very interested to see the prices that you quote. Things are rather different here.And I'm not sure that solar chargers have made it to Saint Lucia, except possibly to the well off. You don't answer my point about ISP subscription - but I expect this is probably because you are thinking of people who already have and use an appropriate type of phone, and therefore already pay a subscription Finally we may need to be a little careful about statistics. Mobile phone penetration in Saint Lucia is greater than 100% (I think this is true generally across the Caribbean) but that DOES NOT mean that everyone has a phone. It would be instructive to be able to do more comparison among different parts of the world - thank you for sharing your perspective with me.

Mobile service providers have come up with very small Internet bundles of upto 7Mb for $0.05 but you can imagine what you can do with a data limit of 7MB. This is actually very expensive because if you scale it up, its like 140MB of data goes for $1 > Finally we may need to be a little careful about statistics.

Yes the statistics don't necessarily mean one to one ownership of a phone but a ratio of phone ownership with the population. > -- ______________________ Mwendwa Kivuva, Nairobi, Kenya twitter.com/lordmwesh -------------- next part -------------- ____________________________________________________________ You received this message as a subscriber on the list: governance at lists.igcaucus.org To be removed from the list, visit: http://www.igcaucus.org/unsubscribing For all other list information and functions, see: http://lists.igcaucus.org/info/governance To edit your profile and to find the IGC's charter, see: http://www.igcaucus.org/ Translate this email: http://translate.google.com/translate_t From remmyn at gmail.com Sat Jan 16 08:39:44 2016 From: remmyn at gmail.com (Remmy Nweke) Date: Sat, 16 Jan 2016 14:39:44 +0100 Subject: [governance] National & Regional IGF initiatives section updated on Wikipedia In-Reply-To: References: Message-ID: Hi Robert, weldone on the great assignment.

Ms. Williams combines over eight years of intensive involvement with Internet Governance issues on behalf of Caribbean civil society with a breadth of contacts and insight into the special needs of Caribbean society for access and exercise of fundamental Internet rights and principles. As promoters of the use of knowledge and internet knowledge management technologies for sustainable environmental resource use, we feel confident that Ms. Williams experience and insights applied to the Internet Governance Forum process will improve Caribbean and small island access to these vital 21st century technologies.

Antes de haber sido elegida como co-coordinadora el año pasado, no tenía conocimiento alguno de las personas que me han votado para desempeñar ese rol, y no soy de las que se caraterizan por aplaudir y menos sobornar (jajaja en Argentina no tenemos plata para eso) por lo cual dictaminar sin fundamento que es antidemocrático o solamente por amiguismo me parece que no tiene fundamento. Los invito a proponerse como co-coordinadores este año ya que es una interesante experiencia de networking y sociedad civil. La autonominación consiste simplemente es enviar un mail, señalar su background y porqué les gustaría ser parte del IGC, si tienen dudas o pregutnas con gusto les responderé para animarlos a postular.

The IGC is a member of the CSCG, and should present its endorsements for consideration. This requires group consensus. Although we do not know how many CS MAG members will be appointed, we should/will present a good slate of CS endorsements to the IGF Secretariat. The CSCG need the list of IGF endorsements (nominees should already have submitted their applications to the IGF Secretariat), ideally a maximum of 3, with short bios/qualifications, by 25 January, so that the CSCG NomCom can make final selections, and send them to the IGF Secretariat/UNDESA. To avoid unnecessary controversy, you/we should be doing this in an open and transparent manner, facilitated by your co-coordinators, with members discussing qualifications and characteristics, and expressions of support, so that the IGC can reach consensus on your endorsements. If you have any questions, Analia, your CSCG representative, should answer them for you, although Ian and I, as independent co-chairs are also willing to assist.

The confusion is understandable, Renata. Arsene answered with the short version (thanks). Here is the long version. The IGF Secretariat/UNDESA application process closes Feb. 1st (not 31 January as I said). BUT that also means that the CSCG must submit our letter of endorsements by then also. Anyone who wants to, from any stakeholder group, can submit a nomination application until Feb. 1st. The Civil Society Coordination Group - CSCG channels civil society endorsements to assist the selection process, working to ensure that the final selections are in line with the consensus/preferences of as many CS members as possible, so that CS has a voice in the selection of our representatives. If someone wants the CSCG to consider them for endorsement to the IGF Secretariat/UNDESA MAG selection process, they must be endorsed by their civil society representative group(s). In this case, it would seem that you should ask for endorsement by the IGC (this list), and the IGC should, as a group, discuss all IGC CS endorsement requests. The IGC co-coordinators should submit the IGC endorsements through your representative on the CSCG -- in this case, Analia. In order for the CSCG NomCom to carefully consider the names from member groups of the CSCG, we need to have the names of nominees from the CSCG groups by 25 January. I hope this helps. If you have any other questions, please let me know, here on the list, or offlist.

I'll follow the recommendations. Some of the groups that I am involved in are not interacting in IGC so I'll forward their messages. As for IGC, I had assumed that the community would have to gather the names of their members that were nominated and follow if they have support. Therefore, I'd just confirme * I have been nominated for the MAG and accepted it in the beginning of January. * My candidacy is about the context of internet governance debates within sustainable and regional development initiatives. I was nominated by a citizen of João Pessoa, Brazil, where the last IGF occurred and part of the region I am currently living in. Bringing regional voices to IGFs is a mission for me, having also worked already in Guadalajara, Mexico, this aspect rings close to home again. * My goals as a MAG member would be to overturn the lack of access to IG initiatives by a great deal of CS organizations due to language barriers, cultural differences and simple misinformation about what the IGF truly is and how to go on to participate on it. I've seen resistence, disinformation, discouragement upfront and how to deal with it. * Last by not least, prior to IGF in Brazil I've participated in other IG debates in regional IGFs, CGI.br courses, ICANN events (all as a fellow or similar initiatives) and for 15+ years I've been advocating for the increase in connectivity in schools and universities and professional development programs for teacher w/ technology. Recently, I've joined efforts with Amazon Federal Rural University Computer Science researchers and we've now merged North and Northeastern Brazilian activists groups for internet governance and open standards research. Opening up internet governance debates to the Amazon region is strategic and fundamentally challenging. So, again, thank you all in this community for the space in which to put forward those plans and I ask for your consideration of these efforts with the MAG nomination support []s Renata On Wed, Jan 20, 2016 at 8:43 AM, Ginger Paque wrote: > Hi Renata, Arsene, and all. > The confusion is understandable, Renata.

Few weeks ago, I posted here my description and received some feedbacks, thank you so much for those who wrote back. Now, following Ginger's call for IGC endorsements before Feb 25, I am writing to request your support as a civil society representative. I have the time and energy to put on this new task. I just submitted my application and please see bellow my short description as sent to the IGF Secretariat. Should you need a much longer version, please email me offlist and I will be glad to discuss this. Do not hesitate to reach out to me if you have any question or need clarifications. Looking forward to the support from all of you. Best regards,A IGF MAG 2016 Description: Arsene Tungali, 26, from theDemocratic Republic of Congo, a blogger and activist. I speak fluently Kiswahili,French and English, interested in a slot in the MAG 2016. I feel that there is an underrepresentation among Civil Society members for the Francophone Africancountries and hope to add my voice to those advocating for the underrepresentedfrom these African countries and in that way promote a more multilingual IG. Iam a strong advocate for remote participation; also advocate for increasing theyouth participation at the IGF and for including more sessions on child onlineprotection and women’s involvement in ICT, which continues to be a barrier inmany African countries. I strongly believe the Internet is for everyone and weneed to make sure everyone has the ability to participate. I am familiar with the IGF, tookDiplo Foundation IG courses and play an active role in the Central African IGFand the African IGF. I also attended and contributed to the IGF USA in 2015. Iam an active member of the newly created dynamic working to host the first IGFin the DRC. I attended the IGF 2015 as an ISOC Ambassador, reported somesessions and blogged about my experience in Diplo’s daily newsletter during theForum. I contribute to various IG lists and working groups such as with theInternet Governance Caucus, the Youth Coalition on Internet Governance andfollow discussions on other lists.

The CSCG NomCom can and does consider any CS nominations sent to it, from CS organisations, from individuals, and other groups, whether within or outside of endorsements by organisations. We have in fact, received such requests for consideration from groups/individuals not represented in the CSCG already this year. In addition, please remember that the IGF Secretariat/UNDESA considers ALL nominations made through the IGF application process, by no means only those endorsed by the CSCG and others. Every application is taken seriously on its own merit. 2. The IGC has no procedure in place for this endorsement process as it is being handled in the short time allowed this year. The IGC should normally constitute a NomCom, as per the charter of the IGC, which seems not to be practical, given the timeline. In addition, Parminder did not mention this, but I am aware that it is not my place to make the post that I did, as I cannot in any way suggest that the IGC do things in a particular way, except as any other member of the IGC can do. I took the liberty of making my post because of the short timeline, and the need I felt to push the process along. I appreciate your accepting my post in the spirit it was made, that of offering information in the hope of a more transparent and effective process. It is important that we learn from this year's experience, so that we put in place better and more transparent strategies and processes for next year. Thanks to all.

Message-ID: Dear IGC, The internet is infiltrating more and more into everyone’s life whether they are “connected” or not. The Internet Governance Forum (IGF) was convened at the request of the second phase of the World Summit on the Information Society held in Tunis in 2005. The extracts below come from the Tunis Agenda , one of the documents produced by the meeting. The ones I have chosen are those that are relevant to my motivation for submitting a nomination, particularly the last one that refers to the interests of the “everyday users”. 29. … The international management of the Internet should be multilateral, transparent and democratic, with the full involvement of governments, the private sector, civil society and international organizations. It should ensure an equitable distribution of resources, facilitate access for all and ensure a stable and secure functioning of the Internet, taking into account multilingualism. We reaffirm our commitment to turning the digital divide into digital opportunity, and we commit to ensuring harmonious and equitable development for all 72 We ask the UN Secretary-General, in an open and inclusive process, to convene, by the second quarter of 2006, a meeting of the new forum for multi-stakeholder policy dialogue—called the *Internet Governance Forum* (IGF). The mandate of the Forum is to: f. Strengthen and enhance the engagement of stakeholders in existing and/or future Internet governance mechanisms, particularly those from developing countries. k. Help to find solutions to the issues arising from the use and misuse of the Internet, of particular concern to everyday users. The Multistakeholder Advisory Group (MAG) was set up by the Secretary General of the United Nations to advise “on the programme and schedule of the Internet Governance Forum meetings” I submitted a nomination for the MAG selection this year because I believe that I can contribute to a currently under-represented perspective in the planning of the work of the IGF. Currently more than half of the world’s population is excluded from participation in the “global phenomenon” of the internet, although, more and more, their lives are being affected by its presence. I cannot “speak for” them, but I can add a voice to those who advocate on their behalf. In particular I am concerned with disability, physical disability but also disability when it comes to mother tongue, to education, to money, to the supply of electricity and/or access to an internet connection, the disabilities that create the “other” in both the developing and the developed the world. These disabilities exist in the small island which is my home, across the region of the Caribbean, and in the wider area of Latin America and the Caribbean to which I belong. So one of my priorities would be working towards improving participation to counteract these disabilities. Another would be to provide a reminder of the needs of “everyday users”. And another would be a recognition of the importance of the low profile unglamourous jobs which need to be done to make things work smoothly, and a willingness to engage with these. I think that Fatima did a tremendous amount of work in the background while she was a member of the MAG. I would hope to be able to fill a part of the gap that she will leave behind her.

Te compartí mi experiencia porque verdaderamente puedo decir que no le debo un favor a nadie y por eso te animaba a que te postules. Respecto del proceso de ONU, estimo que estás hablando del MAG quizás? Allí todavía no tuve la oportunidad de presentarme por lo cual no puedo hablar de mi experiencia. Si cada vez somos más los lationamericanos que vamos ganando espacios de representatividad me parece que poco a poco muchos mitos se pueden ir derribando, vale la pena intentarlo cuando existe la oportunidad (y eso que son más los lugares que no me aceptaron de los que me han aceptado!)

Soy director internacional de la internet Society capítulo Ecuador desde 1999 y participo de organizaciones como GIGANET e Icann en el RALO latinoamericano. He sido miembro de diversos directorios empresariales, gremiales, de la sociedad civil y del gobierno, por lo que puedo decir que conozco estos sectores muy de cerca con trabajo practico y de resultados. He sido presidente del Colegio de Ingenieros Electricos y Electrónicos del Ecuador (gremio profesional), del Sector de TICs e Internet de la Cámara de la Pequeña Industria (sector empresarial), de la Comisión de Conectividad del Ecuador (gobierno) y de la Sociedad de Internet en Ecuador participando de la Sociedad de Internet con capítulos en más de 120 países (Sociedad Civil, usuarios y ciudadanos). Tengo un excelente background Tecnologico especializado por profesión y por experiencia práctica y académica. Y he trabajado en Relaciones y Negociones internacionales desde 1999 en grupos como el AREA de Libre Comercio, Tratados de Libre Comercio, Cumbre Mundial de la Sociedad de la Información, Foros de Gobernanza de Internet y como académico en Ecuador y varios países de Latinoamérica. He participado de trabajos, proyectos, eventos sobre IG y temas de te ilógica, relaciones de gobierno, redes de tecnología, proyectos de Gobernanza en diversas áreas, sector académico, empresarial y gubernamental en América, Europa, Asia, África y Australia por más de 20 años. Soy suficiente en Inglés y entiendo portugués. Tengo un manejo experto de las tecnologías, redes, sistemas, Internet, software, hardware y humanware. Mi aporte al mundo de la IG se encuentra en varias áreas desde la creación de los grupos locales de trabajo sobre estos temas hasta la participación en buena parte de foros a nivel internacional de modo presencial y virtual. Cuento con cursos especializados en Cyberleyes, Cyberdelitos, Propiedad Intelectual en la Red, Mediación, Negociación Internacional en verían Center de Hardvard, GeorgeTown University y otros. Lidero la implementación del FORO DE GOBERNANZA de INTERNET en Ecuador y del Comité Gestor de Internet de Ecuador. Considero que cuento con el conocimiento y la capacidad en los aspectos Tecnologico y de Relaciones Internacionales, así como de Gobernanza para ser de mucha utilidad en el trabajo a realizar. He sido Consejero de Participación Ciudadana en Ecuador (rango de Ministro de Estado) entre otras dignidades que me capacitan para interactuar con grupos de interés diverso tan necesario en estos temas. He sido Gran Jurado Latinoamericano del World Summit Award y otras distinciones igualmente relacionadas con este ámbito lo que certifica adicionalmente mis competencias. Organicé con un equipo de trabajo multidisciplinario nacional w internacional en el 2012 el mayor foro latinoamericano de Tecnología e Internet con temas de IG incluidos en Quito con más de 450 participantes internacionales en una cooperación entre LACNIC y la Súper de Telecomunicaciones del Ecuador. Me pueden contactar por email por cualquier aclaración o ampliación sobre mi hija de vida y esta postulación.

It is interesting to see the backlash also happening in France but due to other reasons. ---------- Forwarded message ---------- *NEWS RELEASE* *UN rights experts urge France to protect fundamental freedoms while countering terrorism* GENEVA (19 January 2016) ? The current state of emergency in France and the law on surveillance of electronic communications impose excessive and disproportionate restrictions on fundamental freedoms, a group of United Nations human rights experts* warned today. In a list of concerns shared with the French Government, the independent experts stressed the lack of clarity and precision of several provisions of the state of emergency and surveillance laws, related to the nature and scope of restrictions to the legitimate exercise of right to freedom of expression, freedom of peaceful assembly and association and the right to privacy. (See in French: * http://www.ohchr.org/FR/NewsEvents/Pages/DisplayNews.aspx?NewsID=16961&LangID=F* < http://www.ohchr.org/FR/NewsEvents/Pages/DisplayNews.aspx?NewsID=16961&LangID=F > ). ?As France debates the strengthening of measures in the fight against terrorism, and considers a reform of the criminal procedure, we call on the authorities to revise the provisions and possible reforms adopted to that end, to ensure they comply with international human rights law,? they noted. In order to guarantee the rule of law and prevent arbitrary procedures, the experts recommend the adoption of prior judicial controls over anti-terrorism measures. The state of emergency law in force since the recent terrorist attacks in France, which temporarily expands the powers of the executive in the fight against terrorism, only allows judicial review a posteriori. The UN experts also noted that the law on surveillance of international electronic communications, adopted in November 2015, expands the power of the executive over the collection, analysis and storage of communications content or metadata, without requiring prior authorization or judicial review. ?Ensuring adequate protection against abuse in the use of exceptional measures and surveillance measures in the context of the fight against terrorism is an international obligation of the French State,? they stated. In their communication with the French authorities, the UN experts expressed alarm that environmental activists have been under house arrest in connection with the state of emergency invoked following the November attacks. ?These measures do not seem to adjust to the fundamental principles of necessity and proportionality,? they said highlighting the risks faced by fundamental freedoms in the fight against terrorism. ?While exceptional measures may be required under exceptional circumstances, this does not relieve the authorities from demonstrating that these are applied solely for the purposes for which they were prescribed, and are directly related to the specific objective that inspired them,? they said calling on the French Government not to extend the state of emergency beyond 26 February 2016. The independent experts expressed their solidarity and deepest sympathy to the victims of the terrorist attacks committed in France and many other places in the world. *(*) The experts:* *David Kaye*, Special Rapporteur on freedom of opinion and expression; *Maina Kiai*, Special Rapporteur on the rights to freedom of peaceful assembly and of association; *Michel Forst*, Special Rapporteur on the situation of human rights defenders; *Ben Emmerson*, Special Rapporteur on the protection and promotion of human rights and fundamental freedoms while countering terrorism; and *Joseph Cannataci*, Special Rapporteur on the right to privacy. ENDS *The Special Rapporteurs are part of what is known as the Special Procedures of the Human Rights Council. Special Procedures, the largest body of independent experts in the UN Human Rights system, is the general name of the Council?s independent fact-finding and monitoring mechanisms that address either specific country situations or thematic issues in all parts of the world. Special Procedures? experts work on a voluntary basis; they are not UN staff and do not receive a salary for their work.

Potter) Date: Thu, 21 Jan 2016 18:34:50 -0500 Subject: [governance] Directors of Caribbean Conservation Association Endorse Nomination of Deirdre Williams to IGF MAG Message-ID: United Nations Office for Geneva Colleagues With reference to openings for representatives of civil society to the Multistakeholder Advisory Group to the Internet Governance Forum 2016, the listed Directors of the Caribbean Conservation Association (CCA) endorse the nomination of Deirdre Williams of St. Lucia to the Multistakeholder Advisory Group (MAG) for the 2016 Internet Governance Forum. Ms. Williams combines over eight years of intensive involvement with Internet Governance issues on behalf of Caribbean civil society with a breadth of contacts and insight into the special needs of Caribbean society for access and exercise of fundamental Internet rights and principles. Seeking to stimulate greater awareness among Caribbean small island constituencies, she has attended and reported back on every IGF meeting since Hyderabad in 2008 (Nairobi 2011 virtually), and also all of the regional - Latin America and Caribbean Preparatory Meeting for the IGF (LACIGF), and sub-regional – Caribbean IGF, since 2009. (She has raised the funds to support her travel on these events herself.) As promoters of the efficient use of knowledge and internet knowledge management technologies for sustainable environmental resource use, we, the directors of the Caribbean Conservation Association feel confident that Ms. Williams experience and insights applied to the Internet Governance Forum process will improve Caribbean and small island access to these vital 21st century technologies, for civil society groups throughout the global small island community and for Caribbean people specifically.

(1st February 2016) - *IGC is a member of the CSCG and have the opportunity to suggest CSCG one or more nominees* that this last will take into account when discussing the final names of candidates that will be endorsed for MAG 206 CS representatives. - Therefore,* if you wish to be considered by the CSCG as a candidate to be endorsed * I* would like to open a discussion within the group on which names we should send to the CSCG *(ideally a number of 3). We should decide this final names* by consensus.* *How to proceed and which are the deadlines if I want my name to be considered?* * IGC OPEN CALL Until 24 January 2016*: Analía (IGC representative at the CSCG) will be *receiving your interest (under the form of short bios/qualifications)* and will circulate candidates among our mailing list. I do suggest that you send your mail asap so as we have the possibility to support/discuss the profiles that will be circulating.*We should have a list of 3 or less candidates by the 25 January 2015.* * 25 January 2016:* Analía will send to CSCG the final list ot the CSCG and this last will start its own process so select final candidates to endorse. * 1st February 2015: * CSCG will present endorsed candiates for the MAG 2016 *Finally,* the secretary general of the un is the one with the final choice of the new MAG members. *PLEASE REMEMBER THAT WITH OR WITHOUTH ENDORSEMENT YOU HAVE TO FIRST FILL THE UN FORM* available here To sum up: If you decide you would like to be considered for the IGF MAG, you should follow UN web page instructions , by submitting your nomination. Moreover, *UNTIL 24 JANUARY* 2016 IGC will be receiving and discussing those candidates profiles that would like to be endorsed by CSCG. I suggest that you let us know: --that you have submitted your nomination --understand why you would be a good candidate --understand what you would like to accomplish as a member of the MAG --any other information they have requested.

UNDESA makes final decisions based on the complete list of nominations, and endorsements from the CSCG and other CS groups--remember, CSCG does not include all CS IG groups.

[]s Renata English/Español/Português Hi! * I have been nominated for the MAG (Multistakeholder Advisory Group) for the IGF (Internet Governance Forum) of the UN and accepted it in the beginning of January. This message is to ask for your support. * My candidacy is about the context of internet governance debates within sustainable and regional development initiatives. I was nominated by a citizen of João Pessoa, Brazil, where the last IGF occurred and part of the region I am currently living in. Bringing regional voices to IGFs is a mission for me, I've also been to conferences in Mexico, where the next IGF will be, and I am part of Latin-American groups and engaged in their demands. * My goals as a MAG member would be to overturn the lack of access to IG initiatives by a great deal of CS organizations due to language barriers, cultural differences and simple misinformation about what the IGF truly is and how to go on to participate on it. I've seen resistence, disinformation, discouragement upfront and how to deal with it. * Last by not least, prior to IGF in Brazil I've participated in other IG debates in regional IGFs, CGI.br courses, ICANN events (all as a fellow or similar initiatives) and for 15+ years I've been advocating for the increase in connectivity in schools and universities and professional development programs for teacher w/ technology. So, again, thank you all in this community for the space in which to put forward those plans and I ask for your consideration of these efforts with the MAG nomination support Thank you Renata ---------------- ESPAÑOL Hola! * Estoy candidata al MAG (Multistakeholder Advisory Group) para el IGF (Internet Governance Forum) de la ONU y vengo pedir su apoyo. * Mis planos para el MAG estan nel contexto de tener más debate de gobernanza de internet dentro de iniciativas de desarollo sostenible regional. Mi nominación fué hecha por una ciudadana de João Pessoa, Brazil, donde el último IGF se pasó y en la misma región en que vivo hoy. Traer voces regionales para los IGFs es una misión para mi, tambien ya tengo experiencia en conferencias en México donde va a ser el próximo IGF y tengo identificación con las demandas latino-americanas. * Mis objectivos como participante del MAG van a ser cambiar la falta de participación en iniciativas de gobernanza de internet de muchas organizaciones de sociedad civil por motivos de diferencias de lenguaje, cultura o simplesmente falta de información de lo que es el IGF en verdad y como seguir a participar en ello. Ya he visto resistencia, poca información, desincentivo y ya he trabajado con esto. * Por último, antes de IGF en Brasil ya participé de otros debates de IG en IGFs regionales, cursos de CGI.br, eventos promovidos por ICANN (todos como fellow o iniciativas similares) y por más de 15 años tengo luchado por mas acceso a internet en escuelas y universidades y por programas de desarollo profesional de profesores c/ tecnologia. Asi, una vez mas, gracias por conocer mis planos y por permitir que venga a pedir su apoyo para esa nominación. Muchas gracias! Renata ------------------ PORTUGUÊS Olá! * Estou candidata ao MAG (Multistakeholder Advisory Group - Grupo de Conselheiros Multisetorial) para o IGF (Internet Governance Forum - Fórum de Governança da Internet) da ONU e venho pedir seu apoio. * Meus planos para o MAG estão no contexto de ter mais debates sobre governança da internet dentro de iniciativas de desenvolvimento regional sustentável. Minha indicação foi feita por uma cidadã de João Pessoa, Brasil, onde aconteceu o último IGF e na mesma região onde vivo hoje. Trazer vozes regionais para os IGFs é uma missão para mim, também já tenho experiência de conferências no México, onde vai ser o próximo IGF e identifico-me com as questões latino-americanas. * Meus objetivos como participante do MAG vão ser mudar a falta de participação em iniciativas de governança de internet de muitas organizações da sociedade civil por diferenças de linguagem, cultura ou simplesmente desinformação sobre o que o IGF realmente é e como participar nele. Já vi resistência, desinformação e falta de engajamento de perto e já lidei com tudo isto. * Por último, antes do IGF no Brasil já participei de outros debates de governança da internet em IGFs regionais, cursos do CGI.br, eventos da ICANN (todos como bolsista ou iniciativas similares) e por mais de 15 anos tenho lutado por mais acesso a internet en escolas e universidades e por programas de desenvolvimento profissional de professores c/ tecnologia. Assim, uma vez mais, agradeço por conhecer estas intenções e peço seu apoio. Muito obrigada!

As requested - Dear IGC members, I would like to seek your support for nomination as a civil society representative for the Multistakeholder Advisory Group (MAG) of the Internet Governance Forum (IGF). I have been involved with Internet Governance (IG) since 2008 and have been working to strengthen the links that bring Latin America and the Caribbean (LAC) together since the early 1990s. I have attended every IGF meeting since Hyderabad in 2008 (Nairobi 2011 virtually), and also all of the regional - Latin America and Caribbean Preparatory Meeting for the IGF (LACIGF), and sub-regional – Caribbean IGF, since 2009. My attendance at these meetings was due to a broad range of funders to all of whom I am very grateful. - Within the IGF environment I have worked, and am working, particularly with the Dynamic Coalition for Access and Disability (DCAD), with the MAG Remote Participation Working Group, and the now dormant Coalition Dynamique pour la Diversité Linguistique I have contributed to the work of the Dynamic Coalition on Internet Rights and Principles and Dynamic Coalition on Public Access in Libraries - I follow discussions on Bestbits and the Justnet Coalition Forum, as well as on the Internet Governance Caucus (IGC) list, and in other areas where IG is discussed. I try to be aware of those issues that unite civil society, as well as of those issues about which there are strongly divergent opinions - For the last two years I have been one of two Co-coordinators of the IGC. - In 2014 I had the honour to be selected as the speaker from civil society at the opening ceremony of the IGF in Istanbul. - I was invited, in several different capacities, to be part of the pilot Stanford Deliberative Poll organised for this year’s IGF - I have good relationships across the group that identifies itself as civil society and also with those belonging to other constituencies. This is useful because the MAG should finally aim for consensus across all of its constituent groups. - My own priorities are in involving ordinary end users in the IG process despite barriers of bdisability, language and culture, gender, education, geographic location, etc. This brings with it a strong interest in the facilitation and improvement of remote participation. Thank you all for your consideration Best wishes Deirdre On 21 January 2016 at 22:34, Analia Aspis wrote: > Dear Deidre, > > I have just sent an open call for those you wish to present they candidacy > at the CSCG thorugh IGC.

Regards,A Dear Analia and IGC colleagues, As most of you know, I am considering a slot in the MAG 2016 following the call by the Secretariat. Few weeks ago, I posted here my description and received some feedbacks, thank you so much for those who wrote back. Now, following Ginger's call for IGC endorsements before Feb 25, I am writing to request your support as a civil society representative. I have the time and energy to put on this new task. I just submitted my application and please see bellow my short description as sent to the IGF Secretariat. Should you need a much longer version, please email me offlist and I will be glad to discuss this. Do not hesitate to reach out to me if you have any question or need clarifications. Looking forward to the support from all of you. Best regards,A IGF MAG 2016 Description: Arsene Tungali, 26, from theDemocratic Republic of Congo, a blogger and activist. I speak fluently Kiswahili,French and English, interested in a slot in the MAG 2016. I feel that there is an underrepresentation among Civil Society members for the Francophone Africancountries and hope to add my voice to those advocating for the underrepresentedfrom these African countries and in that way promote a more multilingual IG. Iam a strong advocate for remote participation; also advocate for increasing theyouth participation at the IGF and for including more sessions on child onlineprotection and women’s involvement in ICT, which continues to be a barrier inmany African countries. I strongly believe the Internet is for everyone and weneed to make sure everyone has the ability to participate. I am familiar with the IGF, tookDiplo Foundation IG courses and play an active role in the Central African IGFand the African IGF. I also attended and contributed to the IGF USA in 2015. Iam an active member of the newly created dynamic working to host the first IGFin the DRC. I attended the IGF 2015 as an ISOC Ambassador, reported somesessions and blogged about my experience in Diplo’s daily newsletter during theForum. I contribute to various IG lists and working groups such as with theInternet Governance Caucus, the Youth Coalition on Internet Governance andfollow discussions on other lists. I am an active ICANN fellow. I amthe Executive of Rudi International, the only youth-led Congolese non-profitworking on child online protection and women’s participation in ICT issues.Since 2012, my organization has convened the annual ITU’s Girls in ICT dayevents and is a member organization that is part of their Child OnlineProtection (COP) initiative across Africa.  ------------------------------------------------------ -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

Hi Analia As Ginger wrote a few days ago, IGC has no way to endorse candidates (which, at least theoretically, means to be able to also not endorse a candidate who wants IGC endorsement). Unless of course you plan to set up a nomcom as per the IGC charter... IGC can of course forward names to CSCG, which candidates can do themselves as well.. parminder > > Kind regards, > Analía > > On Wed, Jan 20, 2016 at 4:56 AM, Arsene TUNGALI (Yahoo) > > wrote: > > Renata, I think you got it right. > > CSCG needs to submit their nominations/endorsements to the IGF > Secretariat before Feb 1st, that's my understanding of Ginger's > email. > > Regards, > A > > *------------------------------------------------------* > _*/Arsène Tungali,/*_ > Co-founder and Executive Director, Rudi International > > Founder, Mabingwa Forum > > Work email:arsenebaguma at gmail.com > Facebook - Twitter > -LinkedIn > > Internet Governance - Blogger - ISOC Member - ICANN Fellow - IGF > Fellow. > Democratic Republic of Congo > > > Le Mercredi 20 janvier 2016 0h25, Renata Aquino Ribeiro > > a écrit : > > > Hi Ginger > > I'm a bit confused by the timeline > In the call, the nomination period ends at Feb 1st > http://www.intgovforum.org/cms/magabout/mag-renewal-announcement > > However, CSCG slate must be appointed before that time? > > Thank you > > Renata > > > > On Tue, Jan 19, 2016 at 7:11 PM, Ginger Paque > wrote: > > Hi everyone, > I have not seen any discussion on this list about the IGC > endorsements for MAG 2016 CS slots.

I would like to ensure that the voice of the underserved communities around the world are heard by advocating "Access". I have worked in the field of Internet Governance on a local, national, regional and global level. I am not afraid to voice my opinion even if it means from time to time going against the status quo. I am also not afraid to make mistakes and learn from failures. I have a knack for listening to people and making room for them to voice their concerns even when they hold different views from mine. If I firmly believe in something, I will advocate it. As a member of the MAG, I would be part of a group of people who collaborate in designing the architecture of IGF meetings and also prioritise certain issues where needed. I would like the opportunity to build on the legacy of previous MAGs and work towards moving the community to safeguarding a free and open internet. I am submitting my Expression of Interest for the NomCom to consider. Many thanks, > > -- *Salanieta Tamanikaiwaimaro aka Sala T* *P. O.

Potter) Date: Fri, 22 Jan 2016 17:19:41 -0500 Subject: [governance] Fwd: IGC endorsements for MAG 2016 CS reps -- Endorsement of Deirdre Williams of St. Lucia by Island Resources Foundation References: Message-ID: <28498D24-0B06-419B-B1CC-46FE35A1706D@irf.org> Dear Members As a member of IGC, and as president of Island Resources Foundation, I want to join with the previously submitted endorsement by the directors of the Caribbean Conservation Association in support of the nomination of Deirdre Williams of St. Lucia, a small island nation in the Eastern Caribbean, to the Multistakeholder Advisory Group of the 2016 Internet Governance Forum. In addition to the objective facts cited in Ms. Williams nomination (appended below), we specifically support this nomination because of her special small island sustainable development experience and engagement with a wide range of civil society organizations and programs in the Latin America and Caribbean region. For forty-four years (the same number of years as Ms. Williams has been resident in St. Lucia) Island Resources Foundation, founded in St. Thomas, US Virgin Islands, has pursued a vision where island systems are not miniature microcosms of continental areas, but rather where it is recognized that a failure to understand the differences between insular and continental systems has unanticipated and too often undesirable consequences for islanders. This is a vision that Ms. Williams fully understands, especially in its Caribbean manifestation and which she will be able to inculcate through her interventions in the MAG, leading up to the 2016 IGF. In spite of being a small regionally-focussed non-profit research and education environmental and conservation organization, Island Resources Foundation, especially under its founding president Dr. Ed Towle, created a large footprint in the field of small island studies. From that perspective, we are convinced that it is vital that island residents have a direct role in the policy implementation, management, and evaluation of resource management and sustainable development programs affecting them. In the 21st century, the Internet is the enabling technology of the age, and without the strong influence of wise islanders and island organizations of civil society that a candidate of the caliber of Ms. Williams can bring to the IGF policy management process, much of the real world benefits of the Internet will be lost or irrelevant to small islands everywhere. We thank you for your consideration of the nomination of Deirdre Williams to the Multistakeholder Advisory Group of the 2016 Internet Governance Forum.

I have attended every IGF meeting since Hyderabad in 2008 (Nairobi 2011 virtually), and also all of the regional - Latin America and Caribbean Preparatory Meeting for the IGF (LACIGF), and sub-regional – Caribbean IGF, since 2009. My attendance at these meetings was due to a broad range of funders to all of whom I am very grateful. > > • Within the IGF environment I have worked, and am working, particularly with the Dynamic Coalition for Access and Disability (DCAD), with the MAG Remote Participation Working Group, and the now dormant Coalition Dynamique pour la Diversité Linguistique I have contributed to the work of the Dynamic Coalition on Internet Rights and Principles and Dynamic Coalition on Public Access in Libraries > • I follow discussions on Bestbits and the Justnet Coalition Forum, as well as on the Internet Governance Caucus (IGC) list, and in other areas where IG is discussed. I try to be aware of those issues that unite civil society, as well as of those issues about which there are strongly divergent opinions > • For the last two years I have been one of two Co-coordinators of the IGC. > • In 2014 I had the honour to be selected as the speaker from civil society at the opening ceremony of the IGF in Istanbul. > • I was invited, in several different capacities, to be part of the pilot Stanford Deliberative Poll organised for this year’s IGF > • I have good relationships across the group that identifies itself as civil society and also with those belonging to other constituencies. This is useful because the MAG should finally aim for consensus across all of its constituent groups. > • My own priorities are in involving ordinary end users in the IG process despite barriers of bdisability, language and culture, gender, education, geographic location, etc. This brings with it a strong interest in the facilitation and improvement of remote participation. > > > Thank you all for your consideration > > > Best wishes > Deirdre Williams > — Bruce Potter President Island Resources Foundation 40+ Years Support for Small Island Sustainable Development -+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ ---------Web Site------------- Web Site -- -- -- -- -- -- Island Resources Foundation -- -- -- -- -- 1718 "P" St NW, # T-4 Washington, DC 20036 Phone: 202/265-9712 cell: 1-443-454-9044 fax: 202/232-0748; E-mail: -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- St. Thomas, USVI, call: 340/775-6225 -+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ Promote Island Resources---Send Your $50 Membership to the DC Office -+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ -------------- next part -------------- ____________________________________________________________ You received this message as a subscriber on the list: governance at lists.igcaucus.org To be removed from the list, visit: http://www.igcaucus.org/unsubscribing For all other list information and functions, see: http://lists.igcaucus.org/info/governance To edit your profile and to find the IGC's charter, see: http://www.igcaucus.org/ Translate this email: http://translate.google.com/translate_t From analia.aspis at gmail.com Fri Jan 22 18:26:11 2016 From: analia.aspis at gmail.com (Analia Aspis) Date: Fri, 22 Jan 2016 20:26:11 -0300 Subject: [governance] IGC endorsements for MAG 2016 CS reps -- Endorsement of Deirdre Williams of St. Lucia by Island Resources Foundation In-Reply-To: <28498D24-0B06-419B-B1CC-46FE35A1706D@irf.org> References: <28498D24-0B06-419B-B1CC-46FE35A1706D@irf.org> Message-ID: Dear Bruce, Thank you very much for your mail.

Analia Con el debido respeto, veo líneas abajo su respuesta a un planteamiento que usted no lo conoce, no lo sabe y si lo sabe no lo reconoce. Desde que participo en ISOC en la lista de IGCAUCUS, siempre he visto los mismos nombres, las mismas personas, a pesar que en el Foro, hay otros nombres, no se hacen aseveraciones temerarias, teniendo experiencias como las de Perú, donde un sujeto a vista y paciencia del Directorio de ISOC, no renueva la directiva y mucho menos entrega el nombre a un grupo para que se continúe la obra...¿Eso le parece correcto?, quizá su cristal tenga otra visión, pero si hay mas fundamentos para verter puntos de vista y opiniones, que no pueden ser menospreciadas y mucho menos discriminarlas como usted tan alegre y risiblemente lo ha hecho, actitud que da mucho que pensar sobre su profesionalismo y su persona. ¨ Por un Internet de todos y para todos y donde la participación sea amplia y no se convierta en un grupúsculo, donde si uno opina lo contrario, se dice sin fundamento, por favor.

This means people like me, who are native English speakers, have an advantage over those who aren’t native English speakers. I am grateful for this advantage but I do understand that it is an accident of birth and I try to always remain sensitive to others. Perhaps at some point human educational priorities will advance to the point where everyone is bilingual from their earliest years in their local native tongue and some other tongue we all share in common. Until then, we will all have to get by. > On 24 Jan 2016, at 11:18, Md.

Basta con Carlos Vera, mi ética va por encima de mis apetitos personales. Un Latinoamericano como co-coordinador, es para recordarnos: "Uno para todos y todos para uno". Por la transparencia, honestidad y solvencia, seguiremos apoyando, pero eso sí, vigilantes, para no caer en manos de oportunistas o aprovechadores de un cargo o institución, para aumentar una medalla más a su pesada solapera y satisfaga a su ego, no lo toleraremos, por eso este grupo es democrático. Éxitos a quien gane y que lo haga bien, caso contrario que nuestro grupo lo demande y de un paso al costado. Saludos Desde Lima, Perú, Capital Gastronómica del Mundo. José F.

All the comments relates to the candidates were in English (despite one or two messges of support that i will translate into English when writing the summary. Since the 2 mails that were in Spanish were referred to other discussion of the IG dynamics and outside this specific and urgent call, i decided to answer to them in my mother tongue (Spanish) just a a quick reply to the sender for after asking this last to open a new discussion inEnglish. Moreover, one of this mails was directly to me so I felt i should answer it in Spanish, so far. I do save the mails in Spanish and after the closing date of the open call, i open a new discussion, so as to be as focused as possible to the Mag and co- coordinator issues. Nevertheless, i do invite you meanwhile to use the translator.

I have saved all the comments related to multilinguism, inclusion and internet, so as we can open a discusiion on such issue since it appears it is an import issue for all of us. Nevertheless, i should state that All the comments related to the cscg candidates were in English (despite one or two messges of support that i will translate into English when writing the summary. After the call is closed). Since the 2 mails that were in Spanish were referred to other discussion of the IG dynamics and outside this specific and urgent call, i decided to answer to them in my mother tongue (Spanish) just a a quick reply to the sender for after asking this last to open a new discussion inEnglish. Moreover, one of this mails was directly refered to my person, so I felt i should answer it in Spanish, so far. I do save the mails in Spanish and after the closing date of the open call, i open a new discussion, so as to be as focused as possible to the Mag and co- coordinator issues. I hope this helps, Analia -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

That we are still here, still discussing, is a tribute to your strength, your support and your good sense. It seems to me that the IGC list has a very important role to play in creating a system of governance for the internet that will be acceptable to everyone. This is because it is a space in which ALL of the different opinions and perspectives, however divergent from one another, can be shared for consideration and discussion. IGC depends on all of us for survival. The language issue is a very important one. Somehow diversity of language and culture has slid right down in the list of what are considered to be priorities in the global discussions. I find it very unfortunate that the technology itself, which surely has the capacity to solve this problem for us, has not yet developed as fully as it might in respect of translation. However automatic translation is very much better than it was. So we are left with a situation in which English is the lingua franca. We have a choice. We can be grateful that we have a tool which allows us to communicate with one another to some extent, or we can allow our different languages to separate us. For me the possibility of communication is the most important thing. I hope that this discussion can find a constructive conclusion. A wise Spanish speaking friend suggested to me at this year's IGF that the IGC might benefit from a reminder of what a united civil society was able to achieve during the WSIS process . Several of the original collaborators on this document are still in the IGC. They speak many languages. This is the final paragraph of their document: We commit ourselves – independent of the modalities of participation granted to us by governments – to pursuing by all just and honourable means necessary the realization of the vision of the information society presented herein. ... We call upon the world's leaders to urgently assume the heavy responsibilities they face, in partnership with civil society, to make this vision a reality.

This was my first time applying to a major IG venue participation and it's interesting to find myself in such a group of people who I've learned from a lot by following their participation in IG debates. We all know that the UN will now continue with the process so that brings me to another point. * Endorsements, language and participation issues I was worried about some endorsements I've received in my email as they are not from organizations participating in IGC. Some, also, in Portuguese. I realize English is the language for the majority of the list and there are also other barriers (perhaps cultural) that keeps groups such a "tech collective" in the Amazon to participating here. However, I do hope in time to increase access of such groups to the IG debate and hopefully, with all contributions, we may find our way about this.

I speak fluently Kiswahili, French and English, interested in a slot in the MAG 2016. I feel that there is an under representation among Civil Society members for the Francophone African countries and hope to add my voice to those advocating for the underrepresented from these African countries and in that way promote a more multilingual IG. I am a strong advocate for remote participation; also advocate for increasing the youth participation at the IGF and for including more sessions on child online protection and women’s involvement in ICT, which continues to be a barrier in many African countries. I strongly believe the Internet is for everyone and we need to make sure everyone has the ability to participate. I am familiar with the IGF, took Diplo Foundation IG courses and play an active role in the Central African IGF and the African IGF. I also attended and contributed to the IGF USA in 2015. I am an active member of the newly created dynamic working to host the first IGF in the DRC. I attended the IGF 2015 as an ISOC Ambassador, reported some sessions and blogged about my experience in Diplo’s daily newsletter during the Forum. I contribute to various IG lists and working groups such as with the Internet Governance Caucus, the Youth Coalition on Internet Governance and follow discussions on other lists.I am an active ICANN fellow. I am the Executive of Rudi International, the only youth-led Congolese non-profit working on child online protection and women’s participation in ICT issues. Since 2012, my organization has convened the annual ITU’s Girls in ICT day events and is a member organization that is part of their Child Online Protection (COP) initiative across Africa.

Kindly find a brief Biography about myself. I would be pleased to channel and be a bridge for civil society interests. I have good working relationships with the sectors such as the Public Sector, Private Sector and the Technical community and am able to raise civil society concerns and engaging in productive dialogue. One of my favourite analogies about Internet Governance was provided by Dr Jovan Kurbalija when he shared the story about the Blind Indostan men and the elephant where each of the blind man only saw in part but together saw a greater whole. This powerful imagery to me captures the conflicts and diverse perspectives within the global internet governance. I am an advocate for an open and free internet. About Myself I am Salanieta Tamanikaiwaimaro also known as Sala T. Originally from Fiji, I am an Indigenous Fijian and passionate about development. I am an Attorney at Law. I am Diplo Foundation Alumni and a European Summer School on Internet Governance Alumni. Work on Internet Governance I founded a Think Tank called Pasifika Nexus (our major Project in 2016 is to provide technical and strategic counsel for Parliamentary Opposition in preparation for the debate of 26 Bills that will take place within 4 weeks within Fiji’s Parliament)that is based in Fiji which is geared towards sustainable development and have run several programs in Fiji and the Pacific which have included hosting remote internet governance discussions amongst Pacific communities, Internet Exchange Point Symposiums, Girls and Women in ICT events, Youth Tech Camps, Regional and National Computer Quizzes for Secondary Schools and participated actively in Access for persons with Disabilities and work closely with the Pacific Islands Disabled Persons Forum in advocating “access”. I also founded the Pacific Digital Alliance for Women in ICT and am a keen advocate for Child Online Protection and work closely with several Pacific countries in this area. I have chaired National Cyber Security Working Group within Fiji and worked as a national expert and regional expert in the area in devising Policy and advising several Pacific Governments. I am also the World Summit Award National Expert for several Pacific countries and participated in speaking roles in Pacific Network Operator Group Events, Internet Governance Forums (IGFs), Asia Pacific Regional Internet Governance Forum (APrIGF), Pacific Regional Internet Governance Forums (PRiGF), APNIC and Pacific Telecom Council meetings. From time to time, I provide Advisories to the Region on matters of interest regarding ICT or internet governance issues. I enjoy writing opinion pieces on Circle ID. Areas of Interest in Internet Governance Human Rights, Access, Critical Internet Resources, ICT, Cyber Security, Gender Current Key Roles Held Currently, I am the President of the South Pacific Computer Society (SPaCS) and an Executive Council member of the South East Asia Computer Confederation (SEARCC). I am a member of the Pacific Chapter of the Internet Society (PICISOC). I am also on the Advisory Council of BrightPath Foundation. I also manage the Japan Pacific ICT Centre within the University of the South Pacific. Previous Capacities In previous capacities, I had the privilege of serving as co-coordinator of the Civil Society Internet Governance Caucus (IGC) for two years where I replaced Dr. Jeremy Malcolm and served alongside Dr Izumi Aizu and then later Norbert Bollow. Two organisations that I am a member of are both accredited At Large Organisations ,namely SPaCS and PICISOC. I was nominated and elected to represent the Asian Pacific Regional At Large Organisation (APRALO) where I served on the Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers (ICANN) where together with the At Large Advisory Committee (ALAC) and members of the At Large structure under Dr Olivier Crepin LeBlond’s leadership participated in raising concerns from a global public interest perspective on policy development processes. Over the years, I have presented and facilitated workshops on Internet Governance in various spaces locally, regionally and globally. 3. Deidre Williams ( Trinidad and Tobago) Total support 7 from: Ephraim Percy Kenyanito, Lillian Nalwoga, Mwendwa Kivuva, Chris Prince Udochukwu Njoku, Renata Aquino Ribeiro, Bruce G. Potter, Carlton Samuels Dear IGC members, I would like to seek your support for nomination as a civil society representative for the Multistakeholder Advisory Group (MAG) of the Internet Governance Forum (IGF). I have been involved with Internet Governance (IG) since 2008 and have been working to strengthen the links that bring Latin America and the Caribbean (LAC) together since the early 1990s. I have attended every IGF meeting since Hyderabad in 2008 (Nairobi 2011 virtually), and also all of the regional - Latin America and Caribbean Preparatory Meeting for the IGF (LACIGF), and sub-regional – Caribbean IGF, since 2009. My attendance at these meetings was due to a broad range of funders to all of whom I am very grateful. · Within the IGF environment I have worked, and am working, particularly with the Dynamic Coalition for Access and Disability (DCAD), with the MAG Remote Participation Working Group, and the now dormant Coalition Dynamique pour la Diversité Linguistique I have contributed to the work of the Dynamic Coalition on Internet Rights and Principles and Dynamic Coalition on Public Access in Libraries · I follow discussions on Bestbits and the Justnet Coalition Forum, as well as on the Internet Governance Caucus (IGC) list, and in other areas where IG is discussed. I try to be aware of those issues that unite civil society, as well as of those issues about which there are strongly divergent opinions · For the last two years I have been one of two Co-coordinators of the IGC. · In 2014 I had the honour to be selected as the speaker from civil society at the opening ceremony of the IGF in Istanbul. · I was invited, in several different capacities, to be part of the pilot Stanford Deliberative Poll organised for this year’s IGF · I have good relationships across the group that identifies itself as civil society and also with those belonging to other constituencies. This is useful because the MAG should finally aim for consensus across all of its constituent groups. · My own priorities are in involving ordinary end users in the IG process despite barriers of bdisability, language and culture, gender, education, geographic location, etc. This brings with it a strong interest in the facilitation and improvement of remote participation. Thank you all for your consideration Best wishes Deirdre 4. *Renata Aquino Ribeiro* (Brazil) - version in Spanish and Portuges attached- Total support 4 from: Ephraim Percy Kenyanito, Lillian Nalwoga, Mwendwa Kivuva, Chris Prince Udochukwu Njoku Hi! * I have been nominated for the MAG (Multistakeholder Advisory Group) for the IGF (Internet Governance Forum) of the UN and accepted it in the beginning of January. This message is to ask for your support. * My candidacy is about the context of internet governance debates within sustainable and regional development initiatives. I was nominated by a citizen of João Pessoa, Brazil, where the last IGF occurred and part of the region I am currently living in. Bringing regional voices to IGFs is a mission for me, I've also been to conferences in Mexico, where the next IGF will be, and I am part of Latin-American groups and engaged in their demands. * My goals as a MAG member would be to overturn the lack of access to IG initiatives by a great deal of CS organizations due to language barriers, cultural differences and simple misinformation about what the IGF truly is and how to go on to participate on it. I've seen resistence, disinformation, discouragement upfront and how to deal with it. * Last by not least, prior to IGF in Brazil I've participated in other IG debates in regional IGFs, CGI.br courses, ICANN events (all as a fellow or similar initiatives) and for 15+ years I've been advocating for the increase in connectivity in schools and universities and professional development programs for teacher w/ technology. So, again, thank you all in this community for the space in which to put forward those plans and I ask for your consideration of these efforts with the MAG nomination support Thank you Renata ---------------- -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

I speak fluently Kiswahili, French and English, interested in a slot in the MAG 2016. I feel that there is an under representation among Civil Society members for the Francophone African countries and hope to add my voice to those advocating for the underrepresented from these African countries and in that way promote a more multilingual IG. I am a strong advocate for remote participation; also advocate for increasing the youth participation at the IGF and for including more sessions on child online protection and women’s involvement in ICT, which continues to be a barrier in many African countries. I strongly believe the Internet is for everyone and we need to make sure everyone has the ability to participate. I am familiar with the IGF, took Diplo Foundation IG courses and play an active role in the Central African IGF and the African IGF. I also attended and contributed to the IGF USA in 2015. I am an active member of the newly created dynamic working to host the first IGF in the DRC. I attended the IGF 2015 as an ISOC Ambassador, reported some sessions and blogged about my experience in Diplo’s daily newsletter during the Forum. I contribute to various IG lists and working groups such as with the Internet Governance Caucus, the Youth Coalition on Internet Governance and follow discussions on other lists.I am an active ICANN fellow. I am the Executive of Rudi International, the only youth-led Congolese non-profit working on child online protection and women’s participation in ICT issues. Since 2012, my organization has convened the annual ITU’s Girls in ICT day events and is a member organization that is part of their Child Online Protection (COP) initiative across Africa.

Kindly find a brief Biography about myself. I would be pleased to channel and be a bridge for civil society interests. I have good working relationships with the sectors such as the Public Sector, Private Sector and the Technical community and am able to raise civil society concerns and engaging in productive dialogue. One of my favourite analogies about Internet Governance was provided by Dr Jovan Kurbalija when he shared the story about the Blind Indostan men and the elephant where each of the blind man only saw in part but together saw a greater whole. This powerful imagery to me captures the conflicts and diverse perspectives within the global internet governance. I am an advocate for an open and free internet. About Myself I am Salanieta Tamanikaiwaimaro also known as Sala T. Originally from Fiji, I am an Indigenous Fijian and passionate about development. I am an Attorney at Law. I am Diplo Foundation Alumni and a European Summer School on Internet Governance Alumni. Work on Internet Governance   I founded a Think Tank called Pasifika Nexus (our major Project in 2016 is to provide technical and strategic counsel for Parliamentary Opposition in preparation for the debate of 26 Bills that will take place within 4 weeks within Fiji’s Parliament)that is based in Fiji which is geared towards sustainable development and have run several programs in Fiji and the Pacific which have included hosting remote internet governance discussions amongst Pacific communities, Internet Exchange Point Symposiums, Girls and Women in ICT events, Youth Tech Camps, Regional and National Computer Quizzes for Secondary Schools and participated actively in Access for persons with Disabilities and work closely with the Pacific Islands Disabled Persons Forum in advocating “access”. I also founded the Pacific Digital Alliance for Women in ICT and am a keen advocate for Child Online Protection and work closely with several Pacific countries in this area. I have chaired National Cyber Security Working Group within Fiji and worked as a national expert and regional expert in the area in devising Policy and advising several Pacific Governments. I am also the World Summit Award National Expert for several Pacific countries and participated in speaking roles in Pacific Network Operator Group Events, Internet Governance Forums (IGFs), Asia Pacific Regional Internet Governance Forum (APrIGF), Pacific Regional Internet Governance Forums (PRiGF), APNIC and Pacific Telecom Council meetings. From time to time, I provide Advisories to the Region on matters of interest regarding ICT or internet governance issues. I enjoy writing opinion pieces on Circle ID. Areas of Interest in Internet Governance Human Rights, Access, Critical Internet Resources, ICT, Cyber Security, Gender Current Key Roles Held Currently, I am the President of the South Pacific Computer Society (SPaCS) and an Executive Council member of the South East Asia Computer Confederation (SEARCC). I am a member of the Pacific Chapter of the Internet Society (PICISOC). I am also on the Advisory Council of BrightPath Foundation. I also manage the Japan Pacific ICT Centre within the University of the South Pacific. Previous Capacities In previous capacities, I had the privilege of serving as co-coordinator of the Civil Society Internet Governance Caucus (IGC) for two years where I replaced Dr. Jeremy Malcolm and served alongside Dr Izumi Aizu and then later Norbert Bollow. Two organisations that I am a member of are both accredited At Large Organisations ,namely SPaCS and PICISOC. I was nominated and elected to represent the Asian Pacific Regional At Large Organisation (APRALO) where I served on the Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers (ICANN) where together with the At Large Advisory Committee (ALAC) and members of the At Large structure under Dr Olivier Crepin LeBlond’s leadership participated in raising concerns from a global public interest perspective on policy development processes. Over the years, I have presented and facilitated workshops on Internet Governance in various spaces locally, regionally and globally.   3. Deidre Williams ( Trinidad and Tobago) Total support 7 from: Ephraim Percy Kenyanito, Lillian Nalwoga, Mwendwa Kivuva, Chris Prince Udochukwu Njoku, Renata Aquino Ribeiro, Bruce G. Potter, Carlton Samuels  Dear IGC members, I would like to seek your support for nomination as a civil society representative for the Multistakeholder Advisory Group (MAG) of the Internet Governance Forum (IGF). I have been involved with Internet Governance (IG) since 2008 and have been working to strengthen the links that bring Latin America and the Caribbean (LAC) together since the early 1990s. I have attended every IGF meeting since Hyderabad in 2008 (Nairobi 2011 virtually), and also all of the regional - Latin America and Caribbean Preparatory Meeting for the IGF (LACIGF), and sub-regional – Caribbean IGF, since 2009. My attendance at these meetings was due to a broad range of funders to all of whom I am very grateful. ·  Within the IGF environment I have worked, and am working, particularly with the Dynamic Coalition for Access and Disability (DCAD), with the MAG Remote Participation Working Group, and the now dormant Coalition Dynamique pour la Diversité Linguistique I have contributed to the work of the Dynamic Coalition on Internet Rights and Principles and Dynamic Coalition on Public Access in Libraries ·  I follow discussions on Bestbits and the Justnet Coalition Forum, as well as on the Internet Governance Caucus (IGC) list, and in other areas where IG is discussed. I try to be aware of those issues that unite civil society, as well as of those issues about which there are strongly divergent opinions ·  For the last two years I have been one of two Co-coordinators of the IGC. ·  In 2014 I had the honour to be selected as the speaker from civil society at the opening ceremony of the IGF in Istanbul. ·  I was invited, in several different capacities, to be part of the pilot Stanford Deliberative Poll organised for this year’s IGF ·  I have good relationships across the group that identifies itself as civil society and also with those belonging to other constituencies. This is useful because the MAG should finally aim for consensus across all of its constituent groups. ·  My own priorities are in involving ordinary end users in the IG process despite barriers of bdisability, language and culture, gender, education, geographic location, etc. This brings with it a strong interest in the facilitation and improvement of remote participation. Thank you all for your consideration Best wishes Deirdre    4. Renata Aquino Ribeiro (Brazil) - version in Spanish and Portuges attached-  Total support 4 from:  Ephraim Percy Kenyanito, Lillian Nalwoga, Mwendwa Kivuva, Chris Prince Udochukwu Njoku Hi! *  I have been nominated for the MAG (Multistakeholder Advisory Group) for the IGF (Internet Governance Forum) of the UN and accepted it in the beginning of January.

As I have followed trade policy in Geneva actively for several years, I would add a few additional bits of information - and a call to action that I hope at least some of you might take up: There has been an agenda on digital trade at the WTO since 1998, known as the Electronic Commerce Work Programme. More information is here and the resolution adopted on the subject at the Nairobi Ministerial can be found here . There will certainly be more discussion of ICTs in a trade context over the next two years at the WTO, though not in a formal negotiating sense outside of pluryilateral negotiations like the Trade in Services Agreement (TiSA) talks. There are also really good processes on digital trade at UNCTAD and developing countries participate in these very actively and the UNCTAD secretariat who work on this area are, in my experience, amongst the best and the brightest I have seen working in any part of the international civil service. You can find the homepage of their work here . As the digital economy becomes more important we will see more and more attention paid to it by trade negotiators. I think the question that you want to ask yourselves from a civil society perspective is: how can you create the relationships with negotiators and their ministries so that you are a part of the inside of your national trade policy development processes, and secondarily, for those who want to work at the international level, how can the public interest inform the work in Geneva? Right now there is very little engagement in Geneva on digital trade, excepting visits by (almost exclusively Western) industry representatives for a few days at a time, and then mostly just to tell negotiators what they want, rather than to help them understand what their policy options are. Civil society engagement with trade negotiators is some areas is very robust here (agriculture, intellectual property) but in digital trade is basically zero. I think that’s a great shame. Geneva is the world’s capital of trade policy and therefore there’s a unique opportunity to educate policymakers about the policy options that they have since they come here regularly. The foundation of how trade policy views the Internet is still being laid. There are many trade negotiators who genuinely want to understand it better and how their countries can use technology for economic benefit not just for big companies but primarily for small and medium sized enterprises. I have spent much of the last few years trying to help them. I hope someone - and ideally several someones - will take that effort forward since I probably won’t be continuing with it myself. Unfortunately, the narrative that negotiators hear about the digital economy relates primarily to developed countries. That’s a problem because the Internet has profound potential for development if wise policies are adopted - I suspect we all agree about that - and at the moment far too many developing country trade officials believe that the Internet is only for the West, and the North, and that there’s little in it for the South. I don’t know about you, but I believe the Internet is for everyone and can benefit everyone, in trade as in so much else. If you are interested, I was a part of a policy advisory process on digital trade co-hosted by WEF and ICTSD. The report of that group was just issued, and I suspect all of you will find it interesting even if you may or may not agree with all the conclusions. You can find it here. I think we all agree that trade policy - like all else - needs a strong voice for the public interest that is trusted by negotiators and relied upon by them. That will only happen if the public interest community invests the time and energy now to create those relationships in Geneva and in national capitals. Those relationships will be most effective, in my view, if the public interest does more than tell negotiators what it don’t want. It should also explain the positive potential for economic and social development that the Internet represents, whether you believe trade agreements should have Internet provisions or not. --- Regards, Nick Ashton-Hart Landline: +41 22 534 99 45 Mobile: +41 79 595 5468 Silent Phone/USA DID: nashton / +1 971-544-8395 email: nashton at consensus.pro FaceTime/iMessage: nashtonhart at mac.com Jabber: nashton at jit.si PGP: 6995293D Fingerprint: 9794 3DC C 8F 27 9 BF8 3105 298 1 96 FA F 538 6995 293 D Skype: nashtonhart Twitter: @nashtonhart Click here to put all my details in your Address Book “Music gives a soul to the universe, wings to the mind, flight to the imagination and life to everything.” - Plato > On 25 Jan 2016, at 11:22, Ephraim Percy Kenyanito wrote: > > During WTO Ministerial meeting in December 2015 in Nairobi, developed countries wanted to introduce a new item (emerging trade and ICTs) but developing countries opposed this move as they wanted a conclusion of the Doha Round of negotiations.

First and foremost is our *Q1 Community Forum * on Wednesday, where *Kathy Brown* will define 2016 as the *Year of Member Action*, and there will be briefings by top ISOC staff as toward what issues that action might be directed. Of course some actions cost money, so on Thursday there will be two *Beyond the Net Info Sessions *, which will educate on the processes by which Chapter and Member Projects can be funded. On Tuesday our *GIP* colleagues will provide their monthly *Digital Watch Internet Governance Update *, looking forward at 2016. On Wednesday and Thursday they will mount a major conference on e-Participation - *Geneva Engage * - focusing on the practicalities of running connected events, and ISOC's own *Todd Tolbert *will weigh in with lessons learned from the production of ISOC's massive *InterCommunity * event in 2015.

First and foremost is our *Q1 Community Forum * on Wednesday, where *Kathy Brown* will define 2016 as the *Year of Member Action*, and there will be briefings by top ISOC staff as toward what issues that action might be directed. Of course some actions cost money, so on Thursday there will be two *Beyond the Net Info Sessions *, which will educate on the processes by which Chapter and Member Projects can be funded. On Tuesday our *GIP* colleagues will provide their monthly *Digital Watch Internet Governance Update *, looking forward at 2016. On Wednesday and Thursday they will mount a major conference on e-Participation - *Geneva Engage * - focusing on the practicalities of running connected events, and ISOC's own *Todd Tolbert *will weigh in with lessons learned from the production of ISOC's massive *InterCommunity * event in 2015.

I will be glad if my name could be added to the list for support. Bellow is my brief description: My name is Wisdom Donkor, 39 years of age and work with the National Information Technology Agency, Ghana as a specialization engineer in E-government and infrastructure, Internet Governance and Open Government Data, platforms and policies. I holds the position of IT Manager and Technical Lead person for Ghana Open Data Initiative Project and also lecture part time at the Ghana Telecom University College (Centre for Professional Development Unit). I was the immediate past Vice General Secretary of the Internet Society Ghana Chapter and currently the National Secretariat Manager of the Information Technology Association of Ghana (ITAG) and also serve as the Secretary (ex-officio) to the Executive Management Committee of which Prof Nii Quaynor is the Chair and President. I have being involve in the IT Industry for over 10 years in areas of ICT Policy development, Internet Governance, Open Government Data, Software Design and Development, Databases and Consolidation, Open Source Software Technologies, Data Divide Privacy and Security, Big Data and analytics, Data Management and technologies, and Human Resource Planning and Development and also consult to many local organisations and has contributed to several ICT projects across Ghana and Abroad. I am a very passionate advocate for free open Internet, open government data and open source software technologies. Besides, I have been associated with ICANN as Fellow, coach (mentor) and ICANN Information Booth Lead and Support Staff since ICANN 49, and have gotten fellowship for 4 meetings out of the last 7 meetings held (ICANN 49, 52, and 54, 55). I have participated, attended and contributed to several Local and international programs such as IGF, ISOC, IETF, ITU, World Bank, The Growth Net of India, USAID, UNDP, Africa Open Data Conference, International Open Data Conference and West Africa Telecommunications Regulators Assembly (WTRA). I am an active member of the Open Government Data Working Group, World Bank Africa Open Data working Team, Non Commercial Stakeholders Group (NCSG), Internet Governance Forum (IGF), Internet Society (ISOC), Diplo Foundation, Global Open Data for Agriculture and Nutrition (GODAN), Ghana IGF Steering Committee, Ghana Open Government Partnership Steering Committee, Linux Accra User Group and does follows several internet governance and Open government data online and mailing list discussions. I have help and organize several workshop programs on Internet governance related issues, Open Government Data and community engagement development and incubation, Cyber Security and Online Child protection, including the IANA Stewardship transition, ICANN community engagement of which the ICANN Vice President for Africa Pierre Dandjinou and Yaovi Atohoun on several occasion took part. I was one of organisers at the 2015 IGF Workshop in Joao Pessoa, Brazil on the topic Internet Governance and Open Government Data Initiative of which the report is readily available on the IGF website. The reason for this workshop was to bring to the attention of IGF, Policy Makers and the general public the linkages between Internet governance and Open Government Data of which policy makers should start considering in the formulation of internet and open data related policies that will help to large extent in the achievement of the Sustainable development goals (SDG’s) adopted by the United Nations. I am currently the founder of the newly formed African Open Data and Internet Governance Research Foundation Institute and hope to use this foundation through research to bring to the bear some of the issues and what policy makers are missing. I hope with my nomination, I will bring to bear some of the issues hindering the development of Africa in relation to sustainable job creation and how Internet governance and open government data can help bridge that gap.

I will be glad if my name could be added to the list for support. Bellow is my brief description: My name is Wisdom Donkor, 39 years of age and work with the National Information Technology Agency, Ghana as a specialization engineer in E-government and infrastructure, Internet Governance and Open Government Data, platforms and policies. I holds the position of IT Manager and Technical Lead person for Ghana Open Data Initiative Project and also lecture part time at the Ghana Telecom University College (Centre for Professional Development Unit). I was the immediate past Vice General Secretary of the Internet Society Ghana Chapter and currently the National Secretariat Manager of the Information Technology Association of Ghana (ITAG) and also serve as the Secretary (ex-officio) to the Executive Management Committee of which Prof Nii Quaynor is the Chair and President. I have being involve in the IT Industry for over 10 years in areas of ICT Policy development, Internet Governance, Open Government Data, Software Design and Development, Databases and Consolidation, Open Source Software Technologies, Data Divide Privacy and Security, Big Data and analytics, Data Management and technologies, and Human Resource Planning and Development and also consult to many local organisations and has contributed to several ICT projects across Ghana and Abroad. I am a very passionate advocate for free open Internet, open government data and open source software technologies. Besides, I have been associated with ICANN as Fellow, coach (mentor) and ICANN Information Booth Lead and Support Staff since ICANN 49, and have gotten fellowship for 4 meetings out of the last 7 meetings held (ICANN 49, 52, and 54, 55). I have participated, attended and contributed to several Local and international programs such as IGF, ISOC, IETF, ITU, World Bank, The Growth Net of India, USAID, UNDP, Africa Open Data Conference, International Open Data Conference and West Africa Telecommunications Regulators Assembly (WTRA). I am an active member of the Open Government Data Working Group, World Bank Africa Open Data working Team, Non Commercial Stakeholders Group (NCSG), Internet Governance Forum (IGF), Internet Society (ISOC), Diplo Foundation, Global Open Data for Agriculture and Nutrition (GODAN), Ghana IGF Steering Committee, Ghana Open Government Partnership Steering Committee, Linux Accra User Group and does follows several internet governance and Open government data online and mailing list discussions. I have help and organize several workshop programs on Internet governance related issues, Open Government Data and community engagement development and incubation, Cyber Security and Online Child protection, including the IANA Stewardship transition, ICANN community engagement of which the ICANN Vice President for Africa Pierre Dandjinou and Yaovi Atohoun on several occasion took part. I was one of organisers at the 2015 IGF Workshop in Joao Pessoa, Brazil on the topic Internet Governance and Open Government Data Initiative of which the report is readily available on the IGF website. The reason for this workshop was to bring to the attention of IGF, Policy Makers and the general public the linkages between Internet governance and Open Government Data of which policy makers should start considering in the formulation of internet and open data related policies that will help to large extent in the achievement of the Sustainable development goals (SDG’s) adopted by the United Nations. I am currently the founder of the newly formed African Open Data and Internet Governance Research Foundation Institute and hope to use this foundation through research to bring to the bear some of the issues and what policy makers are missing. I hope with my nomination, I will bring to bear some of the issues hindering the development of Africa in relation to sustainable job creation and how Internet governance and open government data can help bridge that gap.

Antes de haber sido elegida como co-coordinadora el año pasado, no tenía conocimiento alguno de las personas que me han votado para desempeñar ese rol, y no soy de las que se caraterizan por aplaudir y menos sobornar (jajaja en Argentina no tenemos plata para eso) por lo cual dictaminar sin fundamento que es antidemocrático o solamente por amiguismo me parece que no tiene fundamento. Los invito a proponerse como co-coordinadores este año ya que es una interesante experiencia de networking y sociedad civil. La autonominación consiste simplemente es enviar un mail, señalar su background y porqué les gustaría ser parte del IGC, si tienen dudas o pregutnas con gusto les responderé para animarlos a postular.

I am nominating myself and willing to serve as Co-coordinator of IGC for this period. I have more than the required skills and expertise to function very well in this capacity. Working as an IT consultant has equipped me to understand the rudiments of IT technologies (software, hardware and humanware). Have been privileged to facilitate international online discussions (FIN4AGRIC); served as social media coordinator of remote IGF events in Calabar, Nigeria; joined (NCSG) and contributes at several webinars and a strong advocate from remote participation. Have taken several courses including but not limited to IT, education, management, climate change, policy and implementation which has widened my knowledge to function (DiploFoundation, Worldbank Institute, YaliNetwork etc). I possess listening hear, patience, ability to resolve conflicts, task prioritization, time management, and sense of judgment. In order to be successful in any position and achieve results, there's need for strong relationship. As a coordinator for IGC for 2016 - 2018, I will strive to build strong relationship among IGC Members that will ensure strong discussion and early consensus while ensuring everyone voice and needs is given attention. I seek your support all. Best regards. On Jan 11, 2016 6:47 PM, "Deirdre Williams" wrote: Dear Remmy, Thank you for your congratulations and for the reminder. It seemed best to keep the call for nominations short and simple, but I agree with you that an outline of the responsibilities involved is timely. These are the duties as described on the website. Duties of Coordinators The first and most important duty of the coordinator(s) is to facilitate the discussions and enable the members of the caucus to reach consensus whenever possible. In cases where the IGC cannot reach full consensus, the two coordinators together can make a decision on rough consensus subject to an appeal as described below. The coordinators are also responsible for defining and assigning any other tasks that need to be carried out in support of the caucus such as list management, web site management or support of other tools. These decisions will require the advice of the membership and can be appealed to the appeals team. http://igcaucus.org/charter I would add from my own experience the need for patience, tact, common sense and a fair amount of time. Because the coordinators need to be neutral it is also necessary sometimes to abstain from taking part in exciting discussions. The IGC face to face meeting in Joao Pessoa was small but active with proposals for changes coming from Arsene and Renata. Sonigitu had also indicated that he had suggestions, but unfortunately missed the meeting. These ideas will be issues for discussion this year. I'd like to use this opportunity to say a preliminary thank you to all of you who have supported and helped me during the course of these two years. The co-coordinators owe special thanks to Jeremy who has patiently rescued us from several technical difficulties.

As evident, this belief led to our first setting up an entity called DigitalSENSE Africa Media, which today is an At-Large Structure (ALS) to serve as a vehicle to drive home what multistakeholderism stands for, comprising inclusiveness across growing access to the Internet, openness, privacy, security, diversity and human elements among others. Hitherto, at DigitalSENSE Africa Media, where I lead a team of Strategists, we have consistently focused on developing initiatives that could engender and improve understanding of key issues of importance to our immediate community, which include but not limited to youth, students, women and community-based association to convey Internet efficacy via enlightenment on how best to increase usability positively, especially among the youths, who are furiously targeted as part of efforts at 'catching them young' and engendering knowledge via our DigitalSENSE Forum on Internet Governance for Development (IG4D) since 2009 and Nigeria IPv6 Roundtable from 2011, which are annual events organized and hosted by my team and structured to serve multi-stakeholder needs. At the sub-regional level, I led a team that successfully organized and midwifed the first-ever West African Internet Governance Forum (WAIGF) hosted by Nigeria in Lagos in 2011. On the continent, I recognize the needs which may not be too different from scenario in my home country, Nigeria, where several issues are increasingly seen as problematic, moreso the issue of access and affordability, which will form my agenda at MAG, hence, I have a pretty idea what the challenges are from this part of the world from the African premise and having practiced in the Information and Communication Technology (ICT) sector in the past 19 years and adorned with several awards on Information Society via UNECA to attest these efforts. Also in Nigeria, DigitalSENSE Africa effort at building multistakeholderism gave rise to nurturing of what is today known as Nigeria Internet Governance Forum (NIGF) of which I am equally serving as a member of the NIGF Local Multistakeholder Advisory Group (LMAG), just as I served as a member of the Civil Society Selection Group for the just concluded WSIS+10 Stakeholder Selection Committee for the United Nations President of the General Assembly, among others. I holds a Master of Arts degree from the University of Malta on Contemporary Diplomacy, aside having a Higher National Diploma (HND) in Mass Communication (Journalism) as well as Ordinary National Diploma from the Institute of Journalism & Management, Enugu, Enugu State-Nigeria, among other certification in Computer Studies and Online Journalism and Management from the German International Institute for Journalism (IIJ) Berlin. I am the author of "A Decade of ICT Reportage ... The Award-winning series in addition to having Diploma from Diplo Foundation since 2005 on Internet Governance Capacity Building, and completed a certification course on Introduction to Environmental Law and Policy by The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, to name but a few. Lately, I served as an elected Executive board member, Nigeria Internet Registration Association (NIRA), the managers of .NG country code Top Level Domain and extended by services to several committees including Communications and Publicity, Accreditation, Finance and Establishment, as well as a member of the African Civil Society on the Information Society (ACSIS), branch Secretary, Cyber Security Expert Association of Nigeria (CSEAN) and former publicity secretary, Nigeria Internet Group (NIG) cum chairman, International Relations of NIG; pioneer Secretary, ICT Media Initiative; BARK Foundation – a knowledge-base advocacy group; Internet Governance Caucus (IGC), to name a few. I am an active individual member of ICANN's Generic Name Supporting Organisations (GNSO) like Non-Commercial Users Stakeholder Group (NCSG) and Non-Commercial Users Constituency (NCUC) respectively and has been in forefront of all-inclusive diversity advocacy and recently served as one of the by-lawyers to review the guidelines of NCUC, among others. In addition, I am a consistent member of At-Large Advisory Committee of ICANN under AFRALO - African Regional At-Large Organisation; member of the ALAC Subcommittee on Outreach and Engagement and would like to bring these experiences to bear in the contributions and participation if given the chance to serve at the Internet Governance Forum Multistakeholder Advisory Group (IGF-MAG) for a better netizen-driven society by leveraging on the efforts of past MAG members. I will appreciate consideration of my request to serve. Remmy Nweke Adé Bada Ardent promoter and advocate of Pan-Africanism, Adé BADA is a keen believer of ICT and everything that relates to information. He gained expertise on issues related to ICT through solid training and experience, from design, development, implementation of computer networks and from the training of users of all levels. He had the opportunity to rub shoulders with other IT professionals on the continent and develop master plans of several institutions before turning to the right and get a master's degree. The transverse side of the computer allowed him to focus on logistics in humanitarian and acquire a solid experience of more than ten years there before making a master's in project management. Currently coordinator of the ACSIS West Africa he exercises his talents in banking while continuing IT and legal consultations. He is also Secretary fgi Benin. Your humble servant, has a great capacity for adaptation and integration in addition to several years of satisfying experience. Support my candidature, your questions and suggestions are expected. Ardent promoteur et défenseur du panafricanisme, Adé BADA est un féru des TICs et de tout ce qui a rapport à l'information. Il a acquis une expertise des questions liées aux TICs à travers une solide formation et expérience, allant de la conception, l'élaboration et de la mise en place des réseaux informatiques à la formation des utilisateurs de tout niveau. Il a eu l'opportunité de se frotter à d'autres informaticiens sur le continent et d'élaborer les schémas directeurs de plusieurs institutions avant de s'intéresser au droit et d'obtenir une maîtrise. Le côté transversal de l'informatique lui a permis de s'intéresser à la logistique dans l'humanitaire et d'y acquérir une solide expérience de plus d'une dizaine d'années avant de faire un master en gestion des projets. Actuellement, coordinateur ACSIS de l'Afrique de l'Ouest il exerce ses talents en banque tout en continuant les consultations IT et juridiques et aussi je suis secrétaire FGI Bénin.
