Dear all, 

 

Find below the email sent to the ITU Secretary General with our letter
attached. I have added a footnote in the letter next to the list of
signatories pointing to the fact that the letter remains a living document
open for endorsements. Thank you to all who have participated in this
effort.

 

Please feel free to share this with your contacts and encourage further
organisational and individual sign-ons.

 

I will let you know as soon as we hear back!

 

Best,

Lea

Subject: Open civil society letter re transparency at ITU Plenipotentiary

 

Dear Secretary-General Touré, 

 

I am writing to share with you an open letter developed by a group of civil
society organisations from around the world regarding the upcoming
International Telecommunication Union (ITU) Plenipotentiary Conference in
Busan. Please find the letter attached. Over the last two days, the letter
has already received 31 organisational and individual endorsements from 18
countries, and it will remain open for endorsements until the Conference.

 

The endorsing groups and individuals call for the ITU to build on its
previous commitments to openness and transparency in an effort to work
towards an ever more inclusive, transparent and accountable Union. More
specifically, the letter lists a number of concrete asks relating to the
upcoming Plenipotentiary in Busan.

 

We look forward to your response and continuing dialogue in the run up to
and at the Conference.

 

We remain at your disposal for any questions or comments. 

 

With Kind Regards,

--

Lea Kaspar
