<div>We will likely have members briefly introduce what we’ve done

<pre>Hello
So that we can compile an attendance list, could people who want to participate in this event please send their name, home organizational affiliation and email address to Jean-Jacques Sahel at <a href="mailto:jean-jacques.sahel@icann.org" target="_blank">jean-jacques.sahel@icann.org</a>.
Thanks much
Bill
PS: We are painfully aware that the timing conflicts with the GNSO Council meeting. Alas, no other time could be found in the schedule to do this. So we expect we will probably not see our outgoing and incoming Councilors during the discussion part, which is a great pity. Hopefully Council will be doing some dull procedural stuff at that time (there’s no Council schedule yet of course, so no way to know) so others will feel able to join us. And of course, we hope the Councilors will be able to come over for the reception from 17:45-19:00.

<pre>Hello
As mentioned previously, we will do another CS outreach event building on the experience of our session in London. Below is the boilerplate invitation that Jean-Jacques is sending out. We hope not only that members will join us (F2F or remote participation), but also that people will forward any suggestions of civil society actors in California or beyond who might be interested and able to attend (name, institution, email address).
This time we will dispense with the "introduction to ICANN/GNSO" stuff and move quickly to discussing issues that we have worked on and how these might intersect with the interests of civil society actors not currently engaged in ICANN. We would like to have several members prepared to give brief descriptions of how we’ve been involved in e.g. human rights generally, privacy, freedom of expression, access to knowledge/intellectual property, development, ICANN governance, Internet governance, etc. Rafik and I will be reaching out to solicit folks to play these roles, but if anyone would like to be in the pool we’ll draw on please send Rafik and I a note offline.
Thanks
Bill

Dear xxx
I am contacting you because the Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers (ICANN) will hold its 51st public meeting at the Hyatt Regency Century Plaza in Los Angeles, on 12-16 October 2014. We would like to invite you to participate in a pre-event for Civil Society to be held at the meeting site on Saturday 11 October from 16:30-19:00.
The workshop, Civil Society in ICANN, will provide an opportunity for open and vigorous dialogue between public interest advocates who are active both within and outside the ICANN community. From within ICANN will be members of the Noncommercial Users Constituency <a href="http://www.ncuc.org/" target="_blank">www.ncuc.org</a>, which for over a decade has been the voice of civil society in ICANN’s policy processes on generic top level domain names and related matters. From outside the ICANN community we hope to have participants from advocacy and research organizations based in the US and beyond who are involved in human rights, privacy protection, freedom of expression, access to knowledge, development, and related issues.
The agenda would be to discuss items such as:
· A short overview of ICANN and how it works;
· An introduction to what civil society does and how it participates in ICANN;
· Discussion of key areas of interest to civil society, such as data protection or freedom of expression, and how they are being handled in the ICANN context.
The discussion will run from 16:30-17:45 approx., and will be followed by a networking reception from 17:45-19:00. If you would like to join us, please confirm your attendance via email to me: <a href="mailto:jean-jacques.sahel@icann.org" target="_blank">jean-jacques.sahel@icann.org</a>.
Finally, also please note that participation in the ICANN meeting itself is free of charge and open to the public, and that newcomers are heartily welcomed to attend. The 51st meeting will be a particularly important one, especially as we will continue discussions on the transition of oversight from the US Government to the ‘global multi-stakeholder community’. The evolving agenda and registration are available at <a href="http://meetings.icann.org/icann50" target="_blank">http://meetings.icann.org/icann50</a>.
Thank you for considering this invitation, we look forward to hearing from you, and I would be happy to tell you more over the phone if you would find it helpful of course.
Best regards,
