• Communication commission discussion

Re: [Wsfic_fsmci] NIGD report of latest IC meeting

Dear All,

thank you, it is nice to hear that this report can be useful. Please
circulate it as you see fit.

Janneth espero alguien la vaya a traducir al espanyol...

Vinod, you are right communication, was remarked by many, is one of the
aspects of the process that deserves joint reflection and action by
everyone. I share with you the consideration that "less is more" in most of
the cases (if not indeed all) but i have the impression that the whole IC
seems to have started a process of engagement on communication issues of
which the 4 hour session on the second day may as well have been an
important preliminary step. Communication will be discussed later again and
as you i agree with Chico that all members and their organisations could
provide valuable contribution to the ComCom which is working at the top of
its capacity and with great commitment and enthusiasm but cannot and should
not have to face the whole burdern on its own.

I also have to say that the long plenary on communication was great fun too
and you would have enjoyed it as the others did... you wouldn't suspect by
attending the IC meetings the dancing prowess of some of the members...

Best Wishes
Giuseppe
