Hi Forwarding information about the OECD Ministerial Forum and the participation of the Civil Society Constituency there, the CSISAC, of which I am the member as well and spoke of when the mic opened. Still haven't arrived in my final destination (Quixadá) so sorry for the delay to those who asked for this. All the best Renata ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Suso Baleato <[log in to unmask]> Date: Mon, Feb 29, 2016 at 7:06 AM Subject: Re: OECD contact for Internet Governance Public Session To: Nigel Hickson <[log in to unmask]> Cc: Renata Aquino Ribeiro <[log in to unmask]> Hi Nigel, Many thanks for your input on the ICANN event. On the Ministerial, among the objectives we will be pursuing, these could be those more connected with the ICANN topics of interest: - On Internet Governance. Internet governance structures should reflect democratic values and be transparent and publicly accountable to users. Global Internet policymaking should involve equal participation of all people, countries, and stakeholders. We call upon the OECD member states to support the Internet Governance Forum and to promote the multi-stakeholder process of the World Summit on the Information Society. - On Open Standards and Net Neutrality. Standards-making processes should be open and should encourage competition. This promotes innovation and development. We support the procurement policies that promote open standards, open data formats, and free and open software. We further recommend that the OECD Member Countries oppose discrimination by network providers against particular applications, devices, or content and preserve the Internet's role in fostering innovation, economic growth, and democratic communication.
