>hello everyone,

>since time is running out, i wanted to share what i felt would be a

>the potential role they could play:

>1. Al Alegre, Philippines, FMA/APC, convenor of AP caucus
Opps. From my earlier note I missed the one guy who needs no
comment. Al, my apologies.
Angela's list seems good.
Adam
>2. Susanna George, Philippines, Isis International Manila
>3. Sunit Shrestha, Thailand, Taking IT Global (Youth family,
>nominated by Youth focal point)
>4. David Leeming, Solomon Islands, RVDA [most likely will come under
>SPC's accreditation; did not apply for fellowship but I'd like to
>push for his sponsorship as I went looking for him and
>identification was based on=A0feedback from Chat who was in the
>Pacific WSIS consultation]
>5. Raijeli Nicole, Isis International Manila [considering Al's point
>that she's actually Fijian, although linked to Isis]
>6. Chat Garcia Ramilo, Philippines, APC [note: needs only partial
>funding i.e accommodation and per diem; air travel supported by
>other source]
>7. Robert Sagun, Philippines, Taking IT Global (Youth family;
>nominated by Youth focal point)
>8. Mavic Belleza, Philippines, Isis International
>9. Another application may be missing from the list. This would be
>from Chetan Sharma, Datamation India. Chetan Sharma is also
>attending the Gender and ICTs Forum and self-sponsored travel after
>being told that there weren't anymore fellowships. The commitment
>seems genuine. I would include this as my next nominee if CSD
>confirms this application.
>10. Reza Salim, Bangladesh, BFES
>
>
>I am open to discussing my line-up above. We have good support from
>the Gender Caucus for all gender advocates from this region. These
>are Susanna George, Chat Garcia Ramilo, Mavic Belleza and Raijeli
>Nicole. While three may come from Isis International itself, all
>three are of different nationalities, and hence would contribute to
>the diverse representation that we'd need.
>
>The Youth Caucus nominees for this region were Sunit and Robert as
>you had all seen in Nick's e-mail which Al forwarded to the list.
>
>Maybe we should push for a minimum of 10 delegates to be sponsored?
>It's important that these are able to play an effective role in
>responding to and drafting for content on issues pertinent to the
>region and for cross-cutting issues globally.

>Warm regards,
