[CS Bureau] Process for the Global Alliance and letter from President of ECOSOC

[NANA Delphine]

Chere Renate et Tous,
   
  Merci pour ces informations qui sont d'une importance capitale pour la Societe Civile africaine, qui pense que les TIC sont un outil indispensable et incontournable pour le developpement de l'Afrique. Bien qu'il ne s'agisse pas ici d'une repartition par continent, je vous prie par consequent, de bien vouloir  mettre un Representant de ACSIS, dans ce groupe.
   
  Best regards
   
  Delphine NANA
  ACSIS President

        st1\:*{behavior:url(#default#ieooui) }                Dear all,
   
  Just returning from a short Easter break here some news: 
   
  1.       I received from Sarbuland Khan the request to come up by the end of this beginning week (!!) with some four or five candidate names from CS to help with a Steering Committee or whatever small group; names hopefully from Youth, Gender, Grassroots and Outreach caucuses or components involved or directed towards ICT4D to accelerate MDGs.
   
  Please reread in this context Sarbuland Khan’s letter circulated on 4 April. As we do not have yet a portal and clear guidelines concerning the tiers structure for the Global Alliance, I hope we can soon develop a similar process as in the IGF for the establishment of a Strategy Council to assist the Global Alliance to come off the ground.
   
  In the meantime, please propose your ideas on above mentioned small group
   
  To help in this process, and without having contacted yet anybody:
   
  CONGO would/could propose: 
   
  Titi Akinsanmi
  Karen Banks
  Michael Gurstein
  Parminder (if he is not serving on the IGF)
  CONGO (to help with further outreach and support)
   
  Hopefully soon more on all of this (I don’t like the process neither)
   
  2.       I also received a response letter from the President of ECOSOC concerning CS participation in CSTD, see attached. More information on all preparations for the Information cluster week in may see www.ngocongo.org  
   
  Best
  Renata
