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

Sun May 29 09:03:11 EDT 2016

Hi all,

Arsene won't be available for the next 24hrs due to his flight schedule. He
asked me to post this contributions received from Renata and Remmy.

Renata(A MAG Member):

* The theme #2 seems more in tone with the activities of IGC

* According to CSTD resolutions, the IGF activities have to be more
interactive so consider suggesting already a hashtag for the workshop and
an online interaction framework embedded in the theme #IGFIGC for instance

* Also according to CSTD resolutions, the IGF intersessional work is deemed
of great importance to the advancement of debates in internet governance.
So do consider relating the workshop to the IGF Best Practice Forums and
Dynamic Coalition outputs, many of them announced by members of IGC
participating in IGF and in these interesessional activities.

Remmy (IGC Member ):

- 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 rephrased 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.

Please, drop in your comments, contributions and suggestions to move us
forward on this great matter. We have few days left for us to get this
done. I know I can count on you all.

Have a lovely day !
