[WSIS CS-Plenary] reporting during Prepcom III - volunteers needed

[Rik Panganiban]

Dear Friends,

Once again, we are challenged with a crowded agenda for both the  
inter-governmental process and our own NGO activities for Prepcom  
III.  For the many civil society participants who can not be in  
Geneva, it is important that we try and be as transparent and  
inclusive as possible by reporting in a timely manner on the various  
proceedings.

I am happy to help coordinate reporting on the official meetings, as  
I have done in the past.  Monitoring the official negotiations  
requires dedicated and attentive volunteers who carefully take notes  
at the meetings and then share them with the larger plenary.  This is  
most easily managed if people volunteer to take certain meeting times  
and then are present at the next civil society plenary meeting the  
following morning to report, as well as sharing their notes with the  
virtual plenary email list as soon as possible.  I can also post  
these reports to the CONGO website on a rolling basis.

Please reply to me directly to rik.panganiban at ngocongo.org if you are  
willing to volunteer to help monitor the meetings.  Please indicate  
when you will be in Geneva.  We'll establish a schedule once I know  
how many volunteers monitors we have.

Thanks for your assistance.
