*The Venice Colloquium on multi-stakeholders governance : an opportunity for reflection, looking at practices*

We are pleased to inform you that an international colloquium titled “The multistekholder approach in information and communication policy” will be held in Venice, Isle of San Servolo, on the 22nd and 23rd of November 2004. The colloquium is promoted by the University of Padova (together with Edith Cowan University, University of Colorado and the Province of Venice) and in cooperation with the International Association for Media and Communication Research, WSIS-online and the World Tour Information Society.

The Venice Colloquium on multi-stakeholders governance : an opportunity for reflection, looking at practices In continuity with events organized in Venice in 2003, this Colloquium will be the occasion for a high level scientific as well as policy-oriented debate on this specific topic. It will be held exactly in between the two phases of World Summit on the Information Society, and intends to be a contribution to the conduct of the second phase. The Colloquium will also look beyond the Summit, with the objective of *clarifying contexts and concepts related to multi-actor governance in the field of communication and ICTs, at different levels of policy-making : local and national, regional and global.* The Colloquium intends to be a space for researchers and academics to reflect on the transformation of policy-making in the 21^st century, as well as an occasion for institutional policy-makers and other stakeholders to learn from experiences conducted at different levels, evaluate the potential and constrains of the multi-stakeholder approach and develop creative approaches to participatory governance in communication.
