Dear All This is to invite *all* who are interested to disseminate the attached Call for Public Input <http://www.intgovforum.org/cms/documents/policy-options/799-2016-cenb-call-f...> on Phase II of the intersessional theme '*Policy Options for Connecting and Enabling the Next Billion**'*. This call is based on the framework document <http://www.intgovforum.org/cms/documents/policy-options/796-connectingthenex...> which was developed with the generous assistance of various stakeholders over the past few months. In this document, both the need for emphasizing national and regional specificities, as well as the importance of investigating the ways in which connecting and enabling more users can help support the new sustainable development goals (SDGs) were stressed. All IGF stakeholders, as well as leaders of IGF initiatives, including best practice forums (BPFs), dynamic coalitions (DCs) and workshop sessions are encouraged to contribute to this important initiative, which will help pave the way to IGF 2016 <http://www.igf2016.mx/> in Guadalajara, Mexico, in December this year. While all contributions will be welcomed, a proposed format for submissions is contained in the attached Call for Input. Kindly send all input to Anri van der Spuy (avanderspuy@unog.ch) and Brian Gutterman (gutterman@un.org). Kindly note that whilst the IGF Secretariat deadline is 31st July, 2016 the Secretariat will continue to receive contributions on a rolling basis until 31st August, 2016. Kind Regards, Salanieta Tamanikaiwaimaro
