Conf. call schedule & minutes

Virtual meeting I - 9 April, 10.00 am CET

It was agreed that the session should try to look into issues related to the connection between Internet access, empowerment and participation in a digital society and in Internet governance processes (as these are all interconnected issues, one leading to another). As such, this session is aimed to:

  • discuss the connection between Internet access, empowerment and active participation in a digital society and in Internet governance processes;
  • identify prerequisites, challenges and possible ways forward;
  • develop forward looking key messages connected to the overarching theme.

The overarching theme/focus, key words and format of the session were provisionally agreed, as outlined above. Further work is now done with a view to develop a more relevant session title, a session description and a structured concept form the session format. Detailed minutes of the meeting are available at:Talk:Participation_in_a_digital_society

Estimative timeline: by 20 April - draft session description, title and questions; virtual meeting in the week of 20 April or early in the week of 27 April; agreement by 30 April (in line with the EuroDIG deadline).

Current discussion

This session is intended to be both a follow up from SEEDIG (where issues related to participation in Internet governance processes will be discussed), as well as an integration of the various EuroDIG proposals identified as fitting under the general theme of the session. All these proposals, as well as several questions that will help frame the SEEDIG discussions are listed at Talk:Participation_in_a_digital_society.

Following the first virtual meeting of the org team, the session teaser, key words and overall format have been agreed, as detailed above. Work is now being done on a more relevant session title, the session description and a more developed concept for the session format (including sets of questions and key facilitators).
