News Feature Article on WSIS Stocktaking
The first Preparatory Meeting (PrepCom-1) of the Tunis Phase of the World Summit on the Information Society (WSIS), held in Hammamet, 24-26 June 2004, has confirmed that one of the three areas of focus of the Tunis Phase will be
“Follow-up and implementation of the Geneva Declaration of Principles and Plan of Action by stakeholders at national, regional and international levels, with particular attention to the challenges facing the Least Developed
Countries” (Document WSIS-II/PC-1/DOC/5). This will involve undertaking a stocktaking of the implementation by governments and all other WSIS stakeholders of the WSIS Plan of
Action.
As part of this stocktaking exercise of WSIS-related activities, especially regarding implementation of the WSIS Plan of Action,
the Secretary-General of ITU has sent out a letter
and a questionnaire to all stakeholders inviting them to inform the WSIS Executive Secretariat about their implementation activities and projects.
The information collated from the WSIS Stocktaking questionnaire
is archived in the database of
WSIS Stocktaking activities.
Note: The WSIS stocktaking is a continuous process and the database remains open for all new
submissions. Those submissions received by 15 December 2004 were taken into account in the preliminary report on stocktaking
presented at
PrepCom-2 (February 2005). Activities submitted by 30 June 2005 will be reflected in the stocktaking report to be presented at
PrepCom-3 (September 2005).
