Hi all,

To clarify things, I am not organizing this workshop (and I don't think our Turkish activists friends need any of us to organize such events). I've been invited by Turkish colleagues (some of them running an EDRI member association) to participate, and I proposed to share my own experience in terms of advancing human rights in Internet governance field through different regional and global spaces.
BTW, same applies to the two-days conference that follows on 4-5 September, and organized by the same group of Turkish activists organizations and individuals. 
You are probably aware that some of them have decided to boycott the IGF, others will participate and be active at IGF. In any case, they are all involved, in one way or another, to this "parallel" activities. 
Best
