[IGFmaglist] Deadline for completion of main sessions.

[Chengetai Masango]

> Dear Virat,


> Two questions.  
>  
> 1.      Under the section that says “Description / Agenda / Questions” , is there a word limit?  Should there be one for the sake of consistency.  Some documents can be very descriptive and others very short.  Can we find maximum word limit for the description  / agenda, and then list the 5-6 questions (maximum I suppose) under that description - 200 words , 300 words?

Lets say 250 words. 

>  
> 2.      Is the host country providing chairs for every main session? And what is the specific role that chairs would play different from the moderator and the panelist?

We have always had chairs provided by the host country for the main sessions. Their involvement varies from simply opening and closing the session (handing it off to the moderators in-between ), to having opening remarks, introducing the session and summing up the discussion at the end.

Each facilitator will have a chance to coordinate with the Chair and Secretariat to find what is most suitable depending on the arrangement of the session, the Chair’s  experience and expertise etc..
>  
> Some idea on how session would play out vis-á-vis the chair would help structure the session.
