Dear all,

Please find below the details of the ITU's open call to nominate a civil
society representative High-Level Track Facilitator for the WSIS Forum this
year <https://www.itu.int/net4/wsis/forum/2017/> (12-16 June, Geneva,
Switzerland).

The ITU has requested CS High Level Track Facilitators (HLTF) - see below
the dotted line for more details received from the WSIS Forum organisers.
There is no limit to the number we can nominate. However, note there is no
financial support for participation and all costs have to be borne by the
HTLFs themselves.

To nominate a CS representative, send the name/s either to the entire list
or to both myself and Poncelet (cc'd) by *COB 25 January*, and we will
forward it to the CSCG for deliberation. The CSCG will submit names by 01
February.

Thanks, looking forward to receiving your input! Any questions, do let us
know.

Best,
Sheetal & Poncelet.

This is to bring your attention to the Open Call to Identify High Level
Track Facilitators from Civil Society for the High-level Policy Sessions
for WSIS Forum 2017. This format of HLTFs was really appreciated last year
as it gave a chance for stakeholders to interact better with ministers and
other high levels.



At the WSIS Forum 2017, the High-Level Policy Sessions of the High-level
Track (HLT) will take place on the 13 and 14 June.



The Policy Sessions will be moderated by High-Level Track Facilitators
(HLTF) nominated and identified by each stakeholder type i.e Government,
Private Sector, Civil Society, Technical/ Academic community and
International Organization.


Please note that all HLTFs are to cover their own expenses for travel,
accommodation and insurance. The main task of the HLTF is to capture the
vision, identify emerging trends, opportunities and challenges shared by
the leaders of their session.



The concluding session of the HLT will take place on the 14 of June. During
the concluding session of the HLT the WSIS Forum 2017 Chairman will provide
an Executive Summary, giving a platform for all the HLTFs to submit the
outcomes of their respective policy session. These will be captured in a
publication entitled “WSIS Forum 2017: Policy Statements and Executive
Brief”.
