As engaged stakeholders in the WSIS+20 Review process, we, the undersigned, submit the following recommendations to help operationalise the WSIS+20 review modalities to ensure transparency, inclusivity, and meaningful stakeholder engagement.

• Publish a Clear and Inclusive Timeline:

1. 1. 1. Within 7 days of appointing the co-facilitators, publish and maintain a comprehensive timeline outlining key milestones, including consultations and government-only negotiations, with adequate notice of any changes.
      2. Provide stakeholders with at least 7 days to submit written input.

• Ensure Transparency and Accountability:

1. 1. 1. Maintain an online platform centralizing all input and draft documents, their status, and stakeholders consulted.
      2. Publish substantive records of all consultations, including summary reports of main points and how these have been addressed, to enhance explainability.
      3. Live-stream government-only negotiations and provide post-session transcripts.

• Facilitate Inclusive and Meaningful Stakeholder Consultations: 

1. 1. 1. Actively seek stakeholder input at every stage (elements paper, zero / first / final drafts) through written submissions and official virtual/in-person consultations, applying equal participation rules for governments and other stakeholders.
      2. Hold official stakeholder consultations at existing forums, including global and regional IGF initiatives and the WSIS High-Level Event, while also inviting Member States to conduct national consultations.
      3. Implement a multistakeholder speaking order during consultations by alternating speaking slots among governments and other stakeholder groups, with reasonable time allocation for interventions.

• Broaden and Diversify Participation: 

1. 1. 1. Build on the WSIS+10 accreditation process, including by broadening the group of eligible stakeholders to participants of national, regional, and global IGFs.
      2. Promote diverse participation by offering financial and logistical support for underrepresented communities, particularly from the Global Majority.
      3. Ensure accessibility globally by implementing measures such as accommodating different time zones and working days, publishing key documents in official UN languages, and providing low-bandwidth participation options. 

• Maximise Inclusive Participation in Final Negotiations: 

1. 1. Limit any necessary closed-door intergovernmental negotiations to the final stage of the WSIS+20 process.
   2. Ensure meaningful and inclusive multistakeholder participation at the High-Level Meeting.
