UN Internet Governance Forum (IGF)
A short lightning talk telling how we are solving knowledge gaps in an agile way and how it is resulting in effective and better policy and politics in the internet governance space.
The event will be hybrid and help newcomers understand how Geneva is a place concentrating many possibilities for the internet community trying to shape internet-related issues. With experienced advocates and practitioners, it will unlock tactics for better advocacy and policy.
We will discuss technology sovereignty and how to bring back public investment into infrastructure. Contrasting visions will be debated and a proactive blueprint will result from the debate.
