This is an interesting document. I’ve only skimmed through and not yet read it
in detail.
Does anyone know what happens now? Will it be up for discussion/consultation at
some governance forum like WSIS or ICANN? How can people and organisations
comment on the report?
The motherhood and apple pie statements on page viii ("What Happens Next?”) are
rather vague about next steps.
In particular, what does
“... conceive of a new model that embraces greater involvement of those whose
lives are affected by decisions that govern their ability to use the network
and to exercise their fundamental rights online. This new vision of
“multi-stakeholderism” requires a more collaborative, global and decentralized
model of decision making; enhanced coordination and cooperation across
institutions and actors; increased interoperability in terms of identifying and
describing issues and approaches for resolution throughout the ecosystem; open
information sharing and evidence- based decision making; and expertise- or
issue-based organization to allow for both localization and scale in problem
solving.
...
To continue to be effective, Internet governance will need to be more inclusive
and more distributed.”
actually mean in practice and where is this new vision/model to be developed?
