Dear All,


   1. I will *abstain* from volunteering but will offer these comments;
   2. Preference is given to new speakers and new voices;
   3. If you are able to able to "harness" and coordinate "civil society"
   output from within the various "NRIs" and look to collaborate beyond CS;
   4. If you can gather from best practices and condense  these rather than
   having people repeat  things at IGFs like..."Oh we have that in our
   jurisdiction too..." but to showcase that there is on the ground real time
   collaboration, sharing of best practices where these have already been
   hashed out so you are only highlighting your *"storyboards" or "frame"*;
   5. show gender inclusivity;
   6. show linkages to development (tonnes of literature on this) and make
   the connection to SDGs
   7. show innovation, succession (youth inclusion and capacity
   development), gender inclusion and how it affects everyone in a succinct
   manner
   8. What is equally important is to not to have an overly heavy panel
   that you lose the flow of possible interaction and fluidity of live
   interaction with people in the room and those remotely participating.
