Re: [DC3] IGF opportunities Workshop + BPF

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. http://www.intgovforum.org/cms/documents/best-practice-forums/657-bpf-handb… 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?
