The recommendations will be discussed during EuroDIG and the project will be introduced. Thereafter an online consultation process will be started. The intersessional project will result in a consolidated response by the European Community that will then be transmitted to the global IGF in November 2019 in Berlin.  
 
The EuroDIG meeting in The Hague on 19 and 20 June 2019 will be a first occasion to physically discuss the findings of the report. In addition, EuroDIG is offering an online space where European stakeholders can express their views via two complementary ways: you can either comment on specific paragraphs of the report on the commenting platform and/or you can send a more holistic assessment of the report and its findings by sending a comment or feedback document in PDF format to the EuroDIG secretariat via email on the following address: [http://mailto:digitalcooperation@eurodig.org digitalcooperation@eurodig.org].
 
The deadline for comments is the 15 September. EuroDIG will then summarise the views received in a single document and make them available to the global public for further discussion at the UN Internet Governance Forum in Berlin in November or at any other occasion.
 
It is important to note that EuroDIG sees this process as one opportunity to trigger a debate and exchange on the findings of the Panel and does not intend to consider itself as the only platform to discuss views on and possible follow-up actions to the findings of the report. EuroDIG welcomes other initiatives that provide for a space to discuss and assess the Panel’s report and invites all European stakeholders to also participate in these.

The EuroDIG meeting in The Hague on 19 and 20 June 2019 will be a first occasion to physically discuss the findings of the report. In addition, EuroDIG is offering an online space where European stakeholders can express their views via two complementary ways: you can either comment on specific paragraphs of the report on the commenting platform and/or you can send a more holistic assessment of the report and its findings by sending a comment or feedback document in PDF format to the EuroDIG secretariat via email on the following address: digitalcooperation@eurodig.org.

The deadline for comments is the 15 September. EuroDIG will then summarise the views received in a single document and make them available to the global public for further discussion at the UN Internet Governance Forum in Berlin in November or at any other occasion.

It is important to note that EuroDIG sees this process as one opportunity to trigger a debate and exchange on the findings of the Panel and does not intend to consider itself as the only platform to discuss views on and possible follow-up actions to the findings of the report. EuroDIG welcomes other initiatives that provide for a space to discuss and assess the Panel’s report and invites all European stakeholders to also participate in these.
