Thank you Abdeljalil Bachar,

I have one question on a new concept to all : What is " the intersessional
work" here ?

Thank you in advance.

> Dear Regional and National IGF initiatives,
>
>
> As you are aware, preparations for the 2015 meeting of the Internet
> Governance Forum (IGF) are already in process. This year there is a
> particular emphasis on inter-sessional work. The Multistakeholder Advisory
> Group (MAG) has recommended in its virtual meeting of 3 March that National
> and Regional IGF initiatives be approached and invited to participate more
> closely in the preparation process. It is hoped that such participation
> will serve to strengthen the synergies and connections that exist between
> National and Regional initiatives and the IGF, thereby enriching the
> discourse.
>
> The “*Evolution of Internet Governance: Empowering Sustainable
> Development*” has been chosen for as the main overarching theme of IGF
> 2015. With eight sub-themes that are as follows:
> · Cybersecurity and trust;
> · The Internet economy;
> · Inclusiveness and diversity;
> · Openness;
> · Enhancing multistakeholder cooperation;
> · The Internet and human rights;
> · Critical Internet resources; and
> · Emerging issues.
>
>
>
> The MAG has recommended that a formal invitation be extended to all
> national and regional initiatives both to contribute to the horizontal
> global inter-sessional theme for this year: "*Policy Menus for Connecting
> the Next Billion*", and to develop messages and/ or conclusions that will
> support the global IGF inter-sessional work.
>
> The MAG also recommended that regional and national IGFs be invited to
> participate in the Best Practice Forums (BPFs). The mailing lists for the
> associated themes for this year’s BPFs are as follows:
>
> ·         Regulation and mitigation of unwanted communications (
> http://mail.intgovforum.org/mailman/listinfo/bp_spam_intgovforum.org);
> ·         Establishing and supporting Computer Security Incident Response
> Teams (CSIRTs) for Internet security (
> http://mail.intgovforum.org/mailman/listinfo/bp_certs_intgovforum.org);
> ·         Developing meaningful multistakeholder participation mechanisms
> (
> http://mail.intgovforum.org/mailman/listinfo/bp_multistakeholder_intgovforum.org
> ;
> ·         Practices to countering abuse against women online (
> http://mail.intgovforum.org/mailman/listinfo/bp_counteringabuse_intgovforum.org
> );
> ·         IPv6 (
> http://mail.intgovforum.org/mailman/listinfo/bp_ipv6_intgovforum.org); and
> ·         IXPs (
> http://mail.intgovforum.org/mailman/listinfo/bp_ixps_intgovforum.org).
>
>
> For these reasons, the IGF Secretariat kindly invites National and
> Regional IGF initiatives to:
>
>    1. Introduce the theme and sub-themes of the upcoming IGF to the
>    discussions held during 2015 whenever possible;
>    2. Provide suggestions relating to ideas on the basic pillars that
>    will help operationalize and advance inter-sessional work during 2015;
>    3. Contribute to the discussions regarding the development of “Policy
>    Menus for Connecting the Next Billion”;
>    4. Distribute this message widely amongst multistakeholder
>    participants involved with your respective IGFs; and
>    5. Make any suggestions and/or inputs on how we can maximise,
>    facilitate and strengthen your engagement with BPF and inter-sessional work.
>
>
> We look forward to continuing and strengthening the collaboration that
> already exists between National and Regional IGF initiatives and the IGF.
