[IRP] [governance] Second Latin American and Caribbean Preparatory Meeting for the IGF

[Graciela Selaimen]

Dear all,

I agree that it's a good opportunity for the IRP LAC members to meet in 
August.
I'd suggest that the members of the coalition that are keen to 
organizing a meeting write directly to the group of organizers - which 
includes, beside myself, Carlos Afonso, Valeria Betancourt and Raul 
Echeberria.

all the best,
Graciela
