Hi,

 

This paragraph

 

It is further noted that the strategies deployed by the Human Rights Caucus
have consistently resulted in a raising of the temperature within civil
society but have not been accompanied by a mechanism to allow for discussion
around the debates. One aspect of this that has been especially apparent in
Phase 2 of WSIS, is the limited time allowed in Human Rights meetings for
people from the nations being criticised to respond. This in turn causes
further tension and limits understanding of the various perspectives. The
CSB raises this concern since it is procedural and there are other process
options that could result in greater understanding. The CSB has attempted to
create forums where open debate would have been able to unfold, but the
Human Rights Caucus has not been willing to participate. The CSB finds
itself with limited options to deal with this matter but places on record
that initiatives have been attempted.

 

It was agreed on before I left that the review done by Frances was
acceptable? But from what I recall not same as the one sent – was there a
change in this after?
