[IGFmaglist] IGF Istanbul press release?

Wed Aug 20 09:32:57 EDT 2014

Personally, I prefer a blog. 
that way, we can easily distribute it. 
AND it will be more informative. 
As you are our chair, we are in your hands.

Dear Janis  I support your blog proposal. I expect you have already considered but please also highlight in this the high level of registrations, inlcuding the attendance of ministers and parliamentarians, and also the remote participation facilities for both presenters and participants through the hubs in all geographical regions including (I trust) small island states (e.g. Pacific) - with details of how to obtain info on accessing the hubs.

Subject: Re: [IGFmaglist] IGF Istanbul press release? Dear all, Thank you for your thoughts and encouragement to issue a press release in a run-up to the IGF meeting.As Chengetai mentioned already the UN Press team is working on information package for the press. That will include also a press release prior the meeting and a press release as a result of the IGF meeting. Therefore, I consider issuing a press release from the MAG or the Chair of the MAG might be seen as in competition with the UN press team efforts. I certainly would not be in favor of that.At the same time the "blog" signed by the Chair of the MAG describing goals of the meeting, innovations at the meeting and expected outcomes might be a good way forward. The blog could be refereed to or re-published by those who deem it necessary.Hope this proposal will gather your support. Pls let me knowThank youJK On Wed, Aug 20, 2014 at 2:01 PM, noel yao <noelyao2002 at yahoo.fr> wrote:OK BUT AT LEAST A BASIC EXEMPLE OF THE PRESS RELEASE, IN ORDER TO HELP "DISSEMINATE" IN EACH COUNTRY

To broaden media coverage, though, and diversify it, takes a bit more outreach.  I also find value in having a Press Statement from the Chair of the MAG, and here's another idea on how to promote that statement.  If we have something from the Chair, all of the MAG members can distribute through various lists and contacts with their media contacts.   The purpose of a press release is to gain journalists visibility, which results in their writing about, and following then the upcoming IGF.    A press ready statement from Janis, as Chair,  could be posted by the national and regional IGF initiatives on their web sites, if that is consistent with their practices.  Last week, I did a background briefing for a couple of journalists. Just to explain the IGF, and how it works, and where to find remote participation, and transcripts.  I reviewed the attendance, the HL event, the opening ceremony, and interesting events, with a highlight or two about the improvements to the IGF -- e.g. best practice forums. I cannot promise that they will follow the IGF, but it was helpful to be able to put it into perspective against all else going on in the policy world.   Marilyn Cade      From: pmajor at bluewin.ch

But would a message or a release coming from the MAG (or its chair) be conceivable? The communion of different stakeholder groups coming together in Istanbul to work on the way forward is important. Also, imo, a message coming from the MAG, in a button-up fashion, would be in-line with the spirit of the IGF.  Best regards,Constance   From: Chengetai Masango <cmasango at unog.ch>

Subject: RE: [IGFmaglist] IGF Istanbul press release? HI Constance, The UN Department of Public Information  has a press team that is attached to the IGF meeting and they have already started work. They have already started with briefing packages for journalists  and Assistant-Secretary-General Gass of UNDESA  is already scheduled to give interviews. We are also going through the UN radio etc.. The IGF meeting is also being advertised in the host country and as you may be aware we also work  with the World Broadcasting Union (WBU).

Subject: [IGFmaglist] IGF Istanbul press release? Dear all, To follow-up on yesterday's MAG call, and thinking about the efforts this community is putting in strengthening the IGF this year, I have been wondering if the Secretariat or the MAG (or its chair?) could issue a press release early next week to announce the Istanbul event. It seems this would be in line with the recommendations of the CSTD WG on Improvements to the IGF, i.e., to find ways to leverage the work of the IGF.  The press release could announce the overall theme, the main themes, and also emphasize the outcomes on which the IGF community is working on (e.g. Roadmap for IGF improvements, recommendations from the Chair, outcomes of the regional track, best practices, etc.).  Maybe the Secretariat could enlighten us on communication possibilities around the IGF as I am sure there are procedural aspects to it.
