It is May 6th, the final day to show intrest in being part of this important wg that will help design workshop proposals on behalf of the IGC. The intent is for us to have a formal time at the upcoming IGF to discuss and engage with new people interested in our work as a CS group within the IG sphere.
So far, we have 4 people (which is s fair good number) and i would like to thank Narine Khachatryan (from Europe) for joining the group.
In the next couple of hours, this call will be officially closed and i will be happy to reach out to this group of people for next steps. I you still want to be considered, do not hesitate to reach out to me.
Moreover, other list members will be contacted when we will be seeking speakers, endorement/comments on the work that the group will present.
More coming later....
Thanks for your collaboration.
Arsene

Dear colleagues,
I would like to bring this up again (see email bellow) since the deadline to show interest in being part of this working group is May 6th. This WG will work on designing workshop proposals on behalf of the IGC. 

For your information, I have received so far great positive responses and I am happy to inform you that the following people have shown interest:1. Sarah Kiden (Africa)2. Mwendwa Kivuva (Africa)3. Deidre Williams (America)
I would personally encourage us to have a good representation (region, gender, etc). Please reach out to me if you want to be included to the list. After the 6th of May, we will announce next steps of how this will be carried. 

Also, please post ideas about topics that you would love the working group to consider.

 Dear colleagues, 

In regards to the IGF Call for Workshops Propsals, I would like to bring to your attention that Iam suggesting the IGC to work and submit two to three workshop proposals to bepresented at the upcoming IGF. 
For that, here are two important calls to consider:
1.      I would like to make a call for volunteers whoare willing to be part of something like an “IGC working group” to help designthe workshop proposals which will be presented to the list for comments. These shouldbe people who (preferably) are very familiar with the IGF, who have organized workshopsin the past and who are planning to attend the IGF in Mexico later this year. Sincethe call is closed on June 6th, I would suggest this group to beformed by May 6th at thelatest. Interested members can contact me offlist to express their interest. 2.      I would like to call list members to suggesttopics that can be considered as workshops on behalf of the IGC. We can startmaking suggestions today so that the WG can consider them when it is formed.
My idea is that we can work and submit up to 3 workshopproposals and then hope the MAG to select at least one. These workshops will bean opportunity for IGC members to discuss issues pertaining to the CS in the IGarena and use the time to recruit new members willing to join the IGC.
I hope to count on your collaboration (as always). Should youhave any concern, do not hesitate to contact me offlist or to raise it here.
Regards,Arsene
