FYI


The  IGF Secretariat has launched a call for
Comments<http://review.intgovforum.org/>  on the draft IGF Best
Practices<http://www.intgovforum.org/cms/best-practice-forums>. All
stakeholders are invited to provide input by 5 September 2014 on the
following themes:
1.     Developing meaningful multistakeholder participation
mechanisms<http://review.intgovforum.org/igf2014/best-practices/developing-meaningful-multistakeholder-participation-mechanisms/>
2.     Regulation and mitigation of unwanted communications (e.g.
"spam")<http://review.intgovforum.org/igf2014/best-practices/regulation-and-mitigation-of-unwanted-communications/>
3.     Establishing and supporting Computer Emergency Response Teams
(CERTs) for Internet
security<http://review.intgovforum.org/igf2014/best-practices/establishing-and-supporting-computer-emergency-response-teams-certs-for-internet-security/>
4.     Creating an enabling environment for the development of local
content<http://review.intgovforum.org/igf2014/best-practices/creating-an-enabling-environment-for-the-development-of-local-content/>
5.     Best practices for online child
protection<http://review.intgovforum.org/igf2014/best-practices/best-practices-for-online-child-protection/>

You can also explore resources for each issue (Lead experts,
background documentation, mailing list, etc.), available on the IGF
Best Practices homepage:
http://www.intgovforum.org/cms/best-practice-forums

Please also share ideas of new Best Practices themes  – to be launched
in the continuation of IGF Istanbul: e.g. Best Practices for managing
online identity, Best Practices for developing multistakeholder
resolution mechanisms at the local level (e.g. local IGFs), etc. ?

About the process:
Over the past weeks, communities gathering experts from government,
business, Civil Society, and the academic and technical communities,
have been working through open mailing lists and online virtual
meetings on IGF Best Practices.

The discussion was documented by independent experts that will feed
into five 90 minute Forums in
Istanbul<http://igf2014.sched.org/type/best+practice+forum#.U_cJrUgb5aU>
and that will in turn report into a Best Practices Main Session.  A
summary booklet on each Best Practices theme is the intended outcome.
The drafts are open for comments until 5 September and will be
published after the IGF 2014 meeting.
