[Chapter-delegates] Isoc courses

[Toral Cowieson]

Hello Elena, Marcin, all,

This is a very timely discussion.  Thank you Elena for initiating.

The Internet Leadership team has been looking at ways to leverage existing materials to reach broader communities.  We will be engaging former NGL participants and would also very much like to engage Chapters in these discussions.

As part of that dialogue on process,  the IL team has been in conversations with Anne and Jacek how we might accomplish that.  One thought is to have a robust exchange during the Global INET pre-conference sessions.  This will then be the foundation for fostering sustainable dialogue and additional asset creation for 2012 and beyond.

If you are interested in participating either at the INET itself or after, please let us know by sending an email to leaders at isoc.org, with subject line: Leveraging Assets.

Jacek has also noted the input from those who were at the Bucharest INET last year and the subsequent email discussion.  These comments are also part of what we should consider in the dialogue moving forward.

Regards,
Toral
