[WSIS CS-Plenary] CS Workshop on Internet Governance

[YJ Park]

> It is very clear that there are divergent opinions on Internet

> detailed knowledge on the topic. This is leaving many people as 
> observers of a debate they are not able to contribute to, but which 
> obviously has some 'heat' in it.

> I suggest that we need a structured session at PrepCom 3, and I mean 
> structured so participants can learn in it, to explore the topic and 
> hear different viewpoints. This may enable some more informed and 
> constructive engagement.

Thank you for your specific proposal on raising awareness! I wish
we could organize something like this during PrepCom II. As you
suggested, it would be helpful to present diverse perspectives on
Internet Governance debate. 
 
I would like to contribute to shaping an agenda for this workshop.

Thank you again!
