This is a huge subject, one I often discuss with Evan and others that requires a lot more inquiry for distillation of the cogent arguments you will need for the 10 minutes you'll get to deliver. But be that as it is, a big +1 to Vanda's. Any evolution of this definition of IG I can see is a retrenchment. I would advise fiddling with the aspirational goals even as we recognize we are far from the end game. IMHO - and thinking like a politician - it was not meant to be realized on a 'now' timeline. The struggle I see is to strike a balance between the influence and impact of the several named groups of actors in the IG framework. As of now, it is the pluperfect Animal Farm existence; 'all animals are equal but some are more equal than others'. Participation represents promoting ideas. Equitable promotion means access to all channels. When it comes to resources and with respect to participation, the ensure representation is grossly under-resourced resulting in dimmed voices and impact.

Hi Marita
With the main principles under the internet neutrality and other rules like Human Rights, we came so far with a huge development. So big that it became our society itself with all good and bad things.
Do we have intention to reduce freedom of expression, internet neutrality in exchange of anything? From my view I don’t.
Like in our physical society, good changes take time - this is a learning curve, we are in the beginning of the process, like the initial points of civilization and to change the basic principles always led to disasters…
I will defend building over the main principles and making “baby steps” for new rules, with the prerogative to go back if the rules shown not expected results.
Lots of kisses
Going to airport to get my plane to Cancun. Safe trip and see you there.

Colleagues, I will have 3 minutes in the WSIS+20 public forum on Wednesday to address the following question from an enduser perspective --
*How does your community explain what are the essentials to protect the global internet and to formulate a long-term vision that works for politicians.* *Note that WSIS+20 is a UN process which is multilateral -- so working with political allies would be essential.
Background: WSIS2003 (World Summit on the Information Society) was an intergovernmental conference where other groups had access and observer status which was a step forward at the time. It established a working group on internet governance (WGIG) which was multistakeholder and which developed the following definition --
"Internet governance is the development and application by governments, the private sector and civil society, in their respective roles, of shared principles, norms, rules, decision-making procedures and programmes that shape the evolution and use of the Internet." This led to the establishment of the Internet Governance Forum (2006)
How would we see this definition evolving and what kinds of resources are needed to realize that goal?
I would welcome any input.
