[WSIS CS-Plenary] List of NGO reps in Hammamet and question of govt. relation

Mon Jun 7 12:22:27 BST 2004

Dear All,
As I know several governments, including Australia, Canada, Switzerland do
include CSO representatives in their official delegation - which essentially
means their trip is sponsored, partly or wholly, by the respective
government. Can you give me an idea of the policy and strategic aspects of
including CSO representatives into the international policy making process
and what are its outcome(s). I do have some linkages with the Youth Cacaus
and some members of this cacaus eventually had been part of the government
delegate in the WSIS or other intergovernmental policy meetings.
Your input would be really appreciated.
Best,
Atanu
