10) Proposed Goals and Outcomes: | GOALS: EuroDIG is the best place for promoting multistakeholder models of ICANN in Europe, discussing its role in Internet Governance both with representatives of EU and Central and Eastern Europe, and members of the Council of Europe, including Caucasus. Such discussions contribute to a broader awareness around Internet Governance related issues, especially in the year crucial for shaping the future governance model/s for the Internet, extremely important for all key stakeholders globally and in Europe in particular. One of the regional and strategic shortcomings is the lack of stakeholder involvement in Eastern European (still) transition countries and South-Eastern European countries – on all levels: government, business sector and civil society. EuroDIG offers one of the few annual opportunities when more and more representatives from Eastern and South-Eastern countries can be included in the IG debate and thus promoting the MS model in countries where traditionally governments only have a say. Capacity building for civil society and At-Large structures (ALSes) in those countries is therefore a key challenge – not only for the ICANN community. The purpose of the trip for each traveller is different: Ronald Bieber: recent ALS having applied from Austria - capacity building of this individual needed Yrjö Länsipuro: very experienced volunteer who can act as a mentor to all other 4 candidates Nenad Marinkovic: recent ALS having applied from Serbie - capacity building of this individual needed Ovidiu Popeti: potential ALS from Romania - ISOC Romania. Very interested in participating in At-Large work Erich Schweighofer: recent ALS having applied from Austria - capacity building of this individual needed Each of these individuals will spend some time at the ICANN Booth. Each will have a face to face meeting with the EURALO Region's Chair & Secretary to enable them in participating in At-Large & EURALO. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| 11) Additional Information (optional): | Participation of the respective delegates will focus on a number of aspects: a) Sharing of the best practices of ALSes from Eastern Europe and South-Eastern Europe - in a number of emerging areas, among which: - Open Government related initiatives and citizen engagement in decision-making processes, and the role Internet plays in openness, transparency and social accountability, Governance surveillance and Open Government initiatives, etc. - Inclusion of people with disabilities and vulnerable people in general - Media education b) Engaging in constructive dialogues around Internet Governance related policy frameworks in EU, and ways this is affecting non-EU member countries (how should national policies on IG be shaped, etc.). c) Increasing the number of persons in At-Large to the ICANN Helsinki meeting, by raising awareness of ICANN. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
