Dear all,

 

Just a reminder that the deadline for IGF workshop proposals is 6 June.

http://www.intgovforum.org/cms/igf16-workshops/igf16-wksp-glns

I think  we could propose a workshop to foster debate on community  connectivity, hopefully involving local partners. Is anyone interested in the elaboration of a joint proposal?

Besides workshop proposals, please note that it is also possible to propose the creation of a Best Practice Forum (BPF) on community connectivity. The purpose of BPF is to consolidate good practices on specific issues.

Calros Afonso, from Nupef, suggested the possibility to establish a BPF on community connectivity. Such option could be good to have further visibility at the IGF (we would have a BPF session to discuss CN best practices) but may also entail some duplications, such as the creation of another mailing-list (unless the IGF Secretariat allows us the DC3 mailing list) and the existence of two IGF components (a dynamic coalition and a BPF) dealing with the same issue.

 

What do you think about the idea of a BPF?

Is there anyone interested in proposing a BPF on community connectivity?

Best

Luca
