Hi Luca and Nicolo,

Our executive director, Mira Milosevic, and I would be interested. It would also be a good time to brainstorm how our DCs could work together on cross-cutting issues. In case you don't know, the organisation I work for – the Global Forum for Media Development (GFMD) – took the lead in establishing a new DC just this April: the Dynamic Coalition for the Sustainability of Journalism and News Media (DC-Sustainability). It's meant to be a hub for the journalism, news media, journalism support, and media development communities to engage with important Internet governance and digital policy matters, specifically ones related to the sustainability and viability of journalism and news media in the digital age. 

We specifically cited the opportunity to collaborate with the DCPR since one of our key issue areas is market regulation vis-à-vis big tech. So, I see natural overlap.

In case this is something you're interested in, feel free to sign up for our mailing list. We are also hosting a meeting at RightsCon on Thursday, the 13th in Meeting Pod 2 from 12:45-13:45, which you are cordially invited to attend.

See you in Tunis!

Best,
-Michael

Dear all, 

 

As many of us will be at RightsCon, next week, I am writing to enquire on whether you might be interested in having a brief and convivial meeting to share ideas and organise our work ahead of the IGF. Last year, at RightsCon Toronto, we had the possibility to meet for one hour and the discussion was immensely useful and fruitful.

 

We have written to the RightsCon organisers to book a room on Thursday, 13 June. Please let us know (either on-list or via PM) if you are interested in joining the meeting and if there is any theme that you would like to prioritise for discussion.

 

All the best

Luca and Nicolo
