Marrakesh & 7 human rights defenders

[Arsene Tungali]

I will be in Morocco and would love to attend human right events organised aside. 

On a side note, There were some protests during IGF opening ceremony in Brazil (UN meeting) that were almost shut down by security folks. Not sure how such a thing can be handled during icann metings (non UN) should it happen

As NCUC we have established the "tradition" of meeting "the civil society" the Saturday before the meeting starts, and we use that time to introduce ICANN to the local and recruit members. We can, e.g., organise such an event, but instead spend the time to listen to the "locals". I would also be happy to see the NCSG, or NCUC if it is easier, to take stance here. A statement, well sourced and coordinated with our members who are from the region, could be at least the starting point for a dialogue.
