Session teaser

UNESCO will present and discuss its new project of Defining Internet Universality Indicators and seeks to engage with various stakeholders for their inputs and contribution. The project is an immediate response and action following UNESCO’s adoption of ‘Connecting the Dots’ Outcome document in 2015 as its new approach to Internet issues as well as the successful development and application of the UNESCO IPDC Media Development Indicators. The project aims to elaborate appropriate Internet indicators which can serve to enrich stakeholders’ capacity for assessing Internet development, broaden international consensus, and foster online democracy and human rights towards knowledge societies engaged in sustainable development. This task will use the UNESCO concept of Internet Universality and related R.O.A.M principles as the guiding framework that promotes an Internet based on human rights, and the principles of openness, accessibility and multi-stakeholder participation.
