Hello all. I have been invited to be part of a one day consultation
that will inform the United
Nations assessment on the outcomes of the World Summit on the
Information Society (WSIS). This consultation is being hosted by the
CIRA, with the assistance of
the Canadian Commission for UNESCO. It is described as a<o:p></o:p>
facilitated discussion about
Canadian priorities in the global development of ICT and the Internet,
as well as the role Canadians can play in facilitating the inclusion of
these important technologies in development. <o:p></o:p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p></o:p>I only got this invite a few days ago.
The event is on Wednesday. Not much time to prepare -- I was probably
on the "B" list. I would be happy to receive any input that might help
inform my participation.<br>
