Hi Robert and everyone,
We expect at least 50, but hopefully over 100 young people to attend
WSIS 2, some representing their governments, and many others working
with local and global NGOs and companies.
You can browse the list of the 60+ people who are planning to attend,
read and post blog entries and learn more at our event page for WSIS 2:
http://events.takingitglobal.org/wsistunis
If you want to get a sense for how young people were involved and active
at WSIS Phase One in Geneva, check out the 100+ blog entries, photos,
and reviews:
http://events.takingitglobal.org/wsis
If you decide that you want to attend and need help with accreditation,
do let Robert or I know - as both of our organizations are officially
accredited and can register participants.
P.S. In terms of travel deals, British Airways has a flight from London
for around 200 US roundtrip (from Gatwick to Tunis, 14 to 21 of
November), so if you can get to London cheaply, it's not too expensive
from there.
Cheers, (and happy Canadian thanksgiving to all the other Canadians on
the list...)

Subject: [DDN] WSIS / Tunisia - Nov 13-19 - Who's going
A while back I sent a note to this another other related lists about the
upcoming WSIS being held in Tunisia.
It definitely is not your "average" conference. Accreditation and
registration is far more complex than people may be used to. It is best,
not to leave things to the end - as such, you might find you can't even
get into venue!
Being a veteran of the "WSIS process" , i'd be more than happy to help
answer any questions. Specifically, inquiries people might have in
regards to accreditation and logistical arrangements.
In the meantime, below are some references that might be of help
regards
Robert
