[Telecentres] Fwd: Shirin Ebadi Nomination - Deadline for supports

[Andy Carvin]

Hi everyone,

Meryam Marzouki of the Human Rights Caucus is gathering a petition for 
the ITU to support Nobel Peace Prize Laureate Shirin Ebadi as civil 
society's keynote speaker at WSIS. Would our caucus like to sign on to 
this petition? I would have to inform Meryam by around 14:00 GMT Sunday, 
so please post any comments as soon as possible, particularly if members 
are opposed to this.

thanks,
ac

Dear all,

In order to minimize the files to be send to MM. Utsumi and Karklins,
and since many supports are still being sent to me while we are now on
the week-end, I'll send the list of supports to Shirin Ebadi nomination
only on Sunday evening, so that it can be received and read on Monday
morning. This list of supports will also be forwarded to government
delegations, in addition to the direct lobbying being made by many of
us.

So please keep sending any support to me (marzouki at ras.eu.org) and to
the plenary list, until Sunday, October 16, 19:00 Paris time (17:00
GMT/UTC).

Below the list of supports received as for now.

Many thanks and best regards,
Meryem Marzouki
HR caucus co-chair
==================
Chers tous,

Pour minimiser les envois à MM. Ustumi et Karklins, et sachant que
plusieurs soutiens sont en cours de réception alors même que nous
sommes le week-end, je n'enverrai la liste de soutiens à la candidature
de Shirin Ebadi que dimanche soir, de sorte qu'elle puisse et reçue et
lue lundi matin. La liste des soutiens sera également transmise aux
délégations gouvernementales, en plus du lobbying direct en cours de la
part de plusieurs d'entre nous.

Donc veulliez continuer à m'adresser (marzouki at ras.eu.org), ainsi qu'à
la liste plénière, tous les soutiens, jusqu'à dimanche 16 octobre 19h00
heure de Paris (17h00 GMT/UTC).

Ci-dessous la liste des soutiens reçus à l'heure où j'envoie ce message.

Merci et bien cordialement,
Meryem Marzouki
Co-responsable du caucus DDH
