Session teaser

The session dedicated to the Risks of Internet fragmentation will introduce the topic, consider recent work and discussions, and shed light on the challenges posed by fragmentation, looking at the current state of events.

Session description

Internet fragmentation is a complex phenomenon that has been a major topic in Internet governance in recent years. This introductory session will be dedicated to unravelling the contentious topic, not sufferming the discussion on specific definitions, but focusing more on the effects of Internet fragmentation. This conversation will be shaped by four panellists, which will be able to bring different perspectives to the multi-layered situation and its impacts on the Internet:

  1. Sheetal Kumar, PNIF Co-facilitator
  2. Elena Plexida, Vice President for Government and IGO Engagement, ICANN
  3. Zoe Hawkins, Technology Policy Specialist
  4. Julf Helsingius, Co-chair for the RIPE Cooperation Working Group, ICANN GNSO Council, Chair of Finnish ISOC national chapter

Format

To allow a high level of interaction before and during the event, the session will be structured in the following way:

  • Initial 3 minutes of “punchy statements” by each panellist (10-15 minutes);
