Re: [gnso-igo-ingo] Nature of the problem / Evidence of harm discussion

1. Yes, but I think the question is phrased slightly incorrectly. 
Your wording could be taken to mean that we would only grant 
protections to a particular organization if they can demonstrate 
previous harm. My interest is to try to understand the range of harms 
and protective actions taken prior to trying to establish the 
criteria for granting special protections.
2. Not applicable.
