[governance] Open call for members - CSCG Working Group

[Ian Peter]

(not sure whether this has been posted here – if it has, please consider this a reminder)

As discussed recently, a Working Group is being set up to look at the Civil 
Society Coordination Group (CSCG), and whether there are changes that should 
be made to improve its capabilities.

A Draft Terms of Reference is below – this will be considered by the Working 
Group. Membership is open to people involved with civil society 
organisations, and you can join at http://internetgov-cs.org/mailman/listinfo/cscgwg

Please note that, as it is intended that the group commence collaborative deliberations as soon as 
possible and complete its work by end August, you must join by Monday, May 23.

If you are able to devote some time to this task in coming months, and can 
offer some expertise and inputs to assist us, we would like you to work with 
us on this important task.

DRAFT TERMS OF REFERENCE (to be reviewed when working group is established)

1.    To examine the current  structure,  membership and mission of CSCG, 
and whether  this structure is the best way to ensure that civil society 
representation  is representative (including geographically, politically, 
and in respect of gender balance)
2.    To consider in this examination whether a structure capable of 
receiving and administering funds to assist with civil society 
representatives attendance and travel should also be established
3.    To consider workload and whether it is in civil society’s best 
interest to rotate nomcom membership rather than continuance of one 
representative group making all decisions
4.    To examine current selection procedures to see whether improvements 
should be made
5.    To report back to civil society networks with any resulting 
recommendations by August 31 2016
