Dear all,

Yesterday we had a very long call of the Executive Multistakeholder
Committee and we managed to finish the review of Net Mundial initial
document (principles and roadmap) from our side. The Secretariat prepared a
summary of comments from HLMC members and co-hosts. We also received some
track-changed versions of the initial document.

Based on all those documents we received, EMC tried to introduce changes
that would increase the possibility of consensus. Now there is s version
2.0 of the document. We did manage to preserve points that were important
in most CS contributions to Net Mundial, such as Human Rights principles.
So I see yesterday's meeting as a good step, although there is much more to
come.

As explained to us, this document will now go to the board and they can
introduce changes. We raised our concerns about the legitimacy of the
board, particularly on the side of civil society. We hope that the board
will have the sensitivity to refrain from making much changes, given that
this document is fruit os large amount of discussions in the
multistakeholder committees. After the board's agreement, the doc will be
available online for public consultation.

Best,
Marília
