<DIV style="MARGIN: 0px">Dear all,</DIV>
<DIV style="MIN-HEIGHT: 14px; MARGIN: 0px"><BR></DIV>
<DIV style="MARGIN: 0px">Shirin Ebadi, 2003 peace Nobel prize winner,
accepted the proposal from WSIS CS Human Rights Caucus to propose her as a
speaker for Summit opening. For the HR caucus, having Shirin Ebadi speaking
would be the strongest symbol that the information society should be built
on human rights and social justice foundations.</DIV>
<DIV style="MIN-HEIGHT: 14px; MARGIN: 0px"><BR></DIV>
<DIV style="MARGIN: 0px">The HR caucus has asked Shirin Ebadi if she would
be willing to speak after having seen the first list of proposed speakers
circulated on Sept. 30. (with Adama Samassekou and Renata Bloem proposed as
possible speakers for opening).</DIV>
<DIV style="MIN-HEIGHT: 14px; MARGIN: 0px"><BR></DIV>
<DIV style="MARGIN: 0px">Apparently, we are now compelled to propose Shirin
Ebadi directly to ITU, since the "selection committee" has already sent its
list.</DIV>
<DIV style="MIN-HEIGHT: 14px; MARGIN: 0px"><BR></DIV>
<DIV style="MARGIN: 0px">We would be very pleased however to include support
from other caucuses and organizations to Shirin Ebadi proposal. You
certainly remember that Shirin Ebadi was considered by CS as a whole to
speak at the opening ceremony of the Geneva summit, but at that time, she
was not available because she was receiving her prize in Oslo.</DIV>
<DIV style="MIN-HEIGHT: 14px; MARGIN: 0px"><BR></DIV>
<DIV style="MARGIN: 0px">If you want to support this nomination, please sent
a message to me (<A
href="mailto:marzouki@ras.eu.org">marzouki@ras.eu.org</A>) as soon as
possible. Caucuses or individual organizations are most welcome.</DIV>
