[governance] Fwd: URGENT: IGF Workshop Proposal on behalf of IGC

Sat May 28 16:02:06 EDT 2016

Hi Arsene and folks

thanks for the efforts.

my comments are as follows:

We came up with 3 workshop suggestions:

-          *Erosion of identity or homogenisation by internet - IS it
important? Should it be prevented? Can it be prevented? How?*

*This sounds more like climate change theorem, which is largely off the
track for me. We can better than use the topics to becoming academic
research, much confusion embedded therein. Information Society (IS) must be
distinctly used in the expression of the topics than abbreviation for easy
sale.*

*-          A critical reflexion on the role of civil society in the
Internet governance context*
*This sounds near to it for me, but will a little rejig as - Critical role
of civil society within the Internet Governance Context*

*-          ICT for development: Harnessing the role of civil society for
access, finance and knowledge city*

*This is also near it, but could be rephrased differently - *  *ICT for
development: Connecting civil society roles on access, finance and
knowledge*

*Just my little comments so far*
*Remmy*
