[WSIS CS-Plenary] Consultation on the CSTD

[Renate Bloem]

Dear Ralf and all,

It seems that this is a personal invitation for a first preliminary
consultation with some heads of agencies to explore a.o. in which way an
ECOSOC Commission (intergovernmental body) can take into consideration the
multi-stakeholder approach. I was invited as CONGO President. They will send
me soon an agenda and issue note, and I will let you know more. However, I
look already forward to receive input from any of you.

Renata

As folks might want to go to both events if they travel to Geneva anyway: 
How can people participate? Is there and agenda, a location, a mechanism 
to register, ...?
