by Marita Moll April 23, 2024

April 23, 2024

The following article by CIRA CEO just appeared in CircleID. It is aimed particularly at the technical community urging involvement in the current processes -- GDC, NetMundial, WSIS+10. But equally valid for our community as well https://circleid.com/posts/20240422-technical-community-must-engage-in-supp… Marita

Fwd: [Governance] NetMundial+10 - Update
by Amrita Choudhury April 19, 2024

April 19, 2024

NM+10 update - Sharing for those who may be interested Regards, Amrita ---------- Forwarded message --------- From: Valeria Betancourt via Governance <governance(a)lists.igcaucus.org> Date: Thu, Apr 18, 2024 at 2:00 PM Subject: [Governance] NetMundial+10 - Update To: Internet Governance <governance(a)lists.igcaucus.org> Dear all, The civil society members of the High-Level Executive Committee of NetMundial+10, would like to share some relevant updated information about the NM+10 process. * Participation* All expressions of interest from foreign participants (from outside Brazil) were approved for both the face-to-face and the virtual meeting. A selection of participants from Brazil was made because the number of applications exceeded the quota allocated for each stakeholder group. In the case of civil society, due to demand and interest, a higher quota was allocated. Members of the executive committee have asked that the methodology of the meeting ensure that there is no imbalance in the use of speaking time. *NM+10 agenda and outcome document* The consultation phase is closed and the 154 contributions received are being processed as a basis for the drafting of the NM+10 outcome document. This will be a non-binding document with recommendations, calls and proposals for strengthening the multi-stakeholder model as a basis for inclusive, transparent and democratic governance. These recommendations, calls and proposals are expected to feed into processes such as the Global Digital Compact and the Pact for the Future and the WSIS 20-year review. The NM+10 Secretariat has so far developed a proposal for the structure of the outcome document that has been discussed in the first instance with the sub-group of the executive committee that worked on the open consultation. We have identified and tried to agree on the key elements that the document should contain. Based on this, the Secretariat will produce a first draft of the document for consideration by the executive committee in the coming days. The consultation sub-group will work with the Secretariat to agree on a draft that will form the basis for discussion at the two-day meeting in Sao Paulo. The contributions are available in the NM+10 website: https://netmundial.br/consultation/contributions A preliminary program for the event, which will be held on April 29 and 30, 2024, in São Paulo, is also available. There will be two type of sessions: substantive ones focusing on global challenges for the governance of the digital world and linkages between NM+10 and other fora and processes; and working sessions focused on reaching consensus on language and content for the outcome document. https://netmundial.br/program * Civil society engagement and coordination* We would like to suggest a call for interested civil society to discuss engagement and coordinate around the outcome document next week, once the draft is available. It would point to identify the messages, recommendations, calls, suggestions, proposals that we want to see reflected in the document, as a way to prepare for the work in the two days meetings in Sao Paulo. In the midst of various processes that are determining guidelines for shaping the digital future and the governance not only of the internet but also of digital technologies more broadly, including AI, the NM+10 is an opportunity to address the weaknesses in the application of the multi-stakeholder model, in the structural imbalances of power between and within stakeholder groups, the dominance of corporations in determining the terms on which that governance is operationalised. *What is next? *We will propose a day/time as soon as possible for a call with interested civil society groups to work on the draft outcome document Please let us know if you have questions.
