Session teaser

What's the DNA of n/r IG(F) initiatives in Europe? How can we strengthen European IG Ecosystem together with existing IG(F) initiatives and bring new ones on board?

Session description

This workshop is a follow up from the EuroDIG / EBU Open Forum held during the IGF in Joao Pessoa were participants agreed:

"A set of guidelines and best practices shall be published at the EuroDIG website [1]. These guidelines should be developed together with existing European IG initiatives, taking into account the existing particularities and the flexibility needed in each country. These guidelines will mainly serve to help new initiatives to develop."

The main aim of this workshop is to bring together European IG(F) coordinators/representatives to discuss what is the DNA of European n/r (national/regional) IG(F) initiatives and how we can strengthen the European Internet Governance (IG) ecosystem, and enhance collaboration and communication between national and regional IG(F)s.

Input gathered from this workshop will be reflected in the draft of the above mentioned guidelines.
