Obrigado, Rita !  For sending on my suggestions to the IC’s Articulation Group.

To your question, I sent a message on May 28 2020 addressed to wsfic_fsmci at listas.tiwa.net.br <mailto:wsfic_fsmci at listas.tiwa.net.br>, with the Subject line saying ‘Report from online meeting ‘Looking ahead - Revisiting the World Social Forum’, as a contribution to your discussions’.  My message had a report on our online meeting on May 23 and a bunch of related documents (the agenda for the meeting, the presentations made, etc).

This was the same eddress to which I, and others, had been copying in on our exchange before this mail.

(Just for your information, I also mentioned in a post I did on the same day to the WSMDiscuss list, reporting on the online meeting, that I was also going to separately send the documents to the IC.)

            Regarding your not yet sending in a note on your presentation at the online meeting, Gus and I know how busy you are and everyone is !  But please do send it in even now, on this list; I’m sure that there are people here who would like to read it.  Also, and among other things, we are also going to post all these documents on a website very soon, so that they become even more publicly available.

            In solidarity and in justice,

            Jai

But where I’m hoping that this present decision, and invitation, is an indication that along with other opinions, it was.)
