[Rigf_program] contribution on national/regional IGFs to IGF open consultation May 21

[Adam Peake]

How about adding a new opening sentence, simply:

National and regional IGFs are essential building blocks of the global IGF.

And then continue as the earlier draft I circulated.

I think best not to make too many changes as we had the proposed text
read into the record during the last call.

Best,

Adam

Since last few years  we haven't found yet the right format of integrating the Regional / National IGF, this gives us the opportunity now based on the WSIS principles and demand in IGF meetings to put regional and national IGFs on the maps of IGF events in context."

Suggestion is that let IGF give the process and guidelines, your suggestion and process are much appreciated. The suggestion are my personal views on the subject.
