Davos Meetings: Secret Agenda and Participants
http://www.commondreams.org/news2004/0119-05.htm


The secrecy of the WEF's annual meeting was confirmed on January 19th when
Friends of the Earth International Vice Chair Tony Juniper requested a list of WEF
participants and the detailed agenda they would address. The office of the WEF's
senior managing director, Jose Maria Figueres, said that the detailed agenda and
people attending was confidential.

In an effort to diffuse criticism about its secrecy, the WEF started in 2003 its own
'Open Forum' that runs in parallel to its traditional closed-door meetings. Because the
WEF and the 'Open Forum' are both called 'Forum', media reports and the public
may confuse them.
