[Chapter-delegates] Fwd: Call for feedback: Global Internet Governance processes visualisation

[Olivier MJ Crepin-Leblond]

Dear all,

this was sent to the UK's MultiStakeholder Advisory Group in Internet
Governance by LEa Caspar. Forwarded with her permission, emphasizing
that at the moment this is a work in progress. Still, I thought it was
very helpful indeed and worthy of being shared here.
Kind regards,

Olivier

Dear MAGIG members,

 

(apologies in advance for a long email)

 

I'm writing to share and seek feedback on a *visual timeline of global
internet governance processes*: http://bestbits.net/wp-uploads/diagram.html

 

This visualisation was developed by Joana Varon (Center for Technology
and Society from Fundação Getulio Vargas, Brazil), Deborah Brown (Access
Now, USA), and me (Global Partners) in an effort to better focus our
advocacy efforts and understand where main discussions about global
internet governance are taking place over the next year. We were
specifically aiming to: 1) identify forums where internet governance is
being discussed/decided over the next year; and 2) identify avenues for
participation for civil society to influence those processes. We have
taken two particular processes and their relevant outcomes as our end
points -- the *ITU Plenipotentiary 2014* and the *WSIS+10 review event
in 2015* -- and weaved other forums around them.

 

Given MAGIG's focus on IG, I thought the members might find this useful
in their own work. Furthermore,*_to make the tool useful for the broader
community (MAGIG included), we would be interested to receive your
feedback._* Based on this, we are planning to work with a designer who
will help us make it more user-friendly. With this in mind, we are
particularly interested in hearing your thoughts on:

·         Content: are there other processes or documents you would
include?

·         Presentation: size of boxes, text, colours, etc. (this will be
particularly useful in the next stage of the project)

·         Interactive features: what interactive features would you like
to see incorporated into the document? Ideas can include option of
hiding or highlighting certain elements of the map, filtering the map by
body/process/outcome, etc.

 

If you have thoughts on any of the above, please send your comments by
*Wednesday,* *October 2*.

 

There will be a session on global internet governance for civil society
at the Best Bits meeting
<http://bestbits.net/ai1ec_event/best-bits-2013/?instance_id=> ahead of
the IGF in Bali. We hope this mapping will be a useful tool for civil
society to strategize and we will be presenting it at this session.

 

Looking forward to hearing back from you.

Warm wishes,

*Lea Kaspar***| *GLOBAL PARTNERS*DIGITAL
