Letter to OHCHR
Dear all,
The letter to Mr Bertrand Ramcharan, UN Deputy High Commissioner for
Human Rights, has been sent, with a list of 43 endorsements from
national and international NGOs. Many thanks to all who signed.
This letter sollicitates his participation to WSIS PrepCom3 and to the
Summit to ensure that human rights language in the WSIS process is
comprehensive, strong and consistent with resolutions and decisions
adopted by the Commission on Human Rights and build upon human rights
language developed through the various UN world summits and conferences.
A copy has been sent by email to Mr Adama Samassekou, President of the
WSIS Preparatory Process, and to Mr Pierre Gagné, Director of the WSIS
Executive Secretariat.
This letter is a joint initiative from the World Federalist Movement
(contact: Rik Panganiban, rikp@bluewin.ch) and the WSIS Human Rights in
the Information Society Caucus, a group of 22 NGOs (contact: Rikke
Frank Jorgensen, Danish Institute for Human Rights, rfj@humanrights.dk,
and Meryem Marzouki, Imaginons un Réseau Internet Solidaire,
Meryem.Marzouki@iris.sgdg.org).
The letter with the list of signatures is available on the Human Rights
Caucus web site:

(HTML and PDF versions. Up to now only English version is available).
Best regards,
