We need new people and we need people that will really commit to
work. Civil society is such a small presence on the MAG that we
just cannot afford having people that are not able to maintain
an active presence throughout the process.<br>

of the workshops organized by NCUC and its members are now
online. The secretariat did not link these from the Sched
pages reference below (which I’ve raised with them), so you’d
have to follow the links from the just mentioned old MAG list
of approved workshops.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Two related notes: </div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>*The little multi-author project I edited that was released
on Day 0 (see bottom) is being reformatted for publication by
the USC Press as a proper e-book, will let you know when
available.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>*I have now served for three years on the IGF’s
Multistakeholder Advisory Group (MAG) and want to rotate off
in the next cycle. Nominations for the next MAG are open
until 20 October <a moz-do-not-send="true"

It’d be great if some members threw their hat in the ring for
collective endorsement, which I suppose should be done at the
SG level. And if they also got endorsements by other CS
coalitions like the IG Caucus, Best Bits, or APC, they’d be in
even better shape when the UN DESA works its dark magic and
selects for us (grrr…). Civil society desperately needs to
have serious and strategically oriented representatives who
will work together to advance CS’s objectives in an
environment where NETmundial has endorsed the IGF
strengthening we’d long advocated but conservative proponents
of a staid status quo are quite good at process bending. So I
hope some good people will consider this possibility and seek
nominations.</div>

</div>
<div>Thanks for this. I’m traveling and not
in an optimal time zone but will try to
attend if I can. Either way, a
suggestion: in addition to whatever staff
will be reporting, it might be of interest
to share what members of the community are
doing at IGF. I’ll start, perhaps others
could add their activities.</div>

countries in the GNSO, but a few people on
the IGF MAG argued that the GNSO was “too

broader and more generic)</div>
