Title: The Multi-Stake Holder process - A view from the NGO/NFP community
Schedule: TBC
Place: TBC
Session overview: The Multi-Stakeholder Process (MSP) has been used worldwide for decades by many organizations like ICANN and various social and economical development programs to foster consensus between diverging interests in the public domain, the private sector and civil society. There is a wide body of applied knowledge on the MSP which merits wider dissemination and understanding. A panel of eminent specialists will share some of this knowledge and foster a discussion on how the MSP can be improved at ICANN.
