<p>HI DCAD Members,<o:p></o:p></p>
<p>As was discussed on the call, I have begun drafting the session proposal focusing on the third theme, Advancing human rights and inclusion in the digital age<o:p></o:p></p>
<p>I have also copied and pasted the instructions sheet from the IGF about the requirements needed for the session, what type of session, the length of the session, and other required details. I am attaching this as a Word document, titled Proposal Questions.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p>As Nicodemus suggested, I have opened a Google Doc so we could collaborate together. Hopefully the document is accessible to all. If people have accessibility issues, please do let me know, but I believe since it is straight text there should not be issues.
<o:p></o:p></p>
<p>Everyone will have commenting access to the document so that I can see the suggestions comments that you are making to the document. We also need to decide on the type of session, Roundtable, theatre, etc and the length of the session<o:p></o:p></p>
<p>Also which of the SDG goals do we meet<o:p></o:p></p>
<p>The shared document can be found here, <a href="https://docs.google.com/document/d/1t6BDhVk19kGojdaJL6vlx8NPVQFJf9OJ0Xggbw0uIrs/edit?usp=sharing">
