YOUthDIG 2022, main programme
For newcomers the Internet Governance can be overwhelming with its working groups, procedures and hundreds of documents. Its ecosystem, made of thousands of people and organisations, can be even more so. And as it becomes increasingly complex and dynamic it risks withering the enthusiasm of young people approaching to it for the first time. Intergenerational dialogue and the transmission of knowledge by leading experts in Internet governance and policy-making can mitigate such impact. Young participants will have the chance to raise questions on how to effectively contribute to the ecosystem according to their background and experience, by asking questions about Internet Governance and the functioning of the ecosystem directly to the experts. Three experts will have the chance to share with young people how the Internet Governance changed and evolved over the past years, at the same time helping them navigate the ecosystem by answering the questions and by facilitating youth effective participation.
The purpose of this workshop is to bridge the gap between newcomers and experienced ones in shaping Internet policies.
Format
This workshop features a cross-generational interview to Internet Governance experts, where young participants will wear the hat of journalists and dig into the work and impact created in internet governance by the interviewees, to understand its evolution and shed light on the possible future of the IG and the role that young people are going to play in the near future.
