[WSIS CS-Plenary] Re: References: Multi-stakeholder partnerships

[karen banks]

Dear djilali, claudia, tracey, lisa..

thank you very much for your on and offline posts re MSP references.

I want to clarify that this is not going to be a comprehensive piece - more 
a short reflective article - so i don't want to dissapoint anyone in 
advance if they're expecting something more comprehensive.

I just felt it was an important issue to include in the newsletter - and 
certainly one which i feel we've only started to 'unpack' in terms of 
getting down to some detail as opposed to more general platitudes. Maybe we 
can do something more substantial in the coming months..

djiliali - i assume you're referring to the UN Global Compact? if so, that 
would certainly be a reference

claudia - thanks for these.. i think we in WSIS sometimes forget that the 
MSP approach was used substantially in the UNED processes

www.earthsummit2002.org  - UNED Forum project on MSP by Minu Hemmati + see 
also UNED principles for Stakeholder participation on UNED Forum website
www.diplomacy.edu  - Diplo Foundation, malta
www.globalpublicpolicy.net  - digital governance.org Initiative
www.earthcouncil.org - multistakeholder paths to peace
www.devalt.org - Universal center for good governance

lisa - i'll write off list in response to your email

tracey - thanks for additional references re Civicus etc..
