[WSIS CS-Plenary] SUB-Committee A: Civil Society Contributions

[Elizabeth Carll, PhD]

Karen,

This is great!!  Thank you for compiling the submitted statements.  You are
so skilled at organizing important and comprehensive information.

The one thing I would suggest as ongoing information along with the
publication of the statements would be:

1)  deadlines for submission of contribution for the various parts of the
political chapeau and the plan of implementation and any other official
documents along with

2) the appropriate email addresses to submit contributions and statements

Having all of the above information in one place, along with the documents
you have compiled would enable any NGO to quickly assess what needs to be
done in terms of their initiatives.  This is especially important for those
groups who are not present onsite and have more difficulty following the
rapid changes.

Thanks again,

Elizabeth
