... which must draw our attention to a critical issue. Should the
organizations of the CS[1] attend the Tunisian stage of the WSIS?
Boycotting the Tunisian venue would help to raise awareness on 
the human rights issues?
I feel we _must_ discuss these issues urgently.

... lo que debe llamarnos la atención sobre una cuestión crítica.
Las organizaciones de la sociedad civil[1] ¿deberían asistir a la
etapa tunecina de la CMSI? Boicotear el evento en Túnez, ¿ayudará
a elevar el nivel general de conciencia sobre las cuestiones de
derechos humanos?
Creo que _debemos_ discutir estas cuestiones con urgencia.

Note/Nota:

[1] By CS organizations I mean the subset of the Civil Society
(albeit very little) represented by the organizations in this
Plenary. // Por `organizaciones de la sociedad civil' entiéndase
el subconjunto (muy pequeño) de la sociedad civil representado
por las organizaciones reunidas en este Plenario.
