This session is the preliminary culmination of a series of virtual events and face-to-face meetings within the framework of EuroDIG.

Session description
2024 is shaping up to be a landmark year for global Internet governance. The development of a UN Global Digital Compact, the preparations for next year’s 20-year review of the World Summit on the Information Society, NETmundial+10, and the São Paulo Guidelines that it produced have inspired stakeholders from all regions and backgrounds to debate how best to govern our global digital environment for the benefit of all. Meanwhile, both technology and regulation are rapidly evolving, challenging the commitment to a multistakeholder approach, as well as our ability to manage the adoption and spread of new technologies and applications. Will these efforts be sufficient to harness the myriad new opportunities, while understanding and addressing the emerging risks?
The EuroDIG 2024 Opening Plenary will be an opportunity to take stock of these diverse processes and the Internet governance space more generally. At a time when cooperation and coordination are more necessary and important than ever, this multistakeholder panel will explore the links between different initiatives, the common elements emerging, and the gaps that must be filled if we are to realise the WSIS vision of a “people-centred” Information Society.
