Agnė Vaiciukevičiūte:
So are we still alive here? All happy, a lot of smiles, a lot of people I already knew before today. Once again, I’m just really happy of being here, of having you here in Lithuania, in Vilnius. It’s such an honor for us to represent Lithuania, Vilnius, to give a floor to everyone here today to create more opportunities, to create more collaboration. I was shocked about the previous discussion positively. I cannot imagine myself at that age that I had so many sophisticated insights and some really good key messages that all our international organizations could really take into account. And I really like the man back in the auditorium who mentioned what’s next. I think this is very, very interesting to think of it as well. The agenda of the event is very, very impressive, and yet more importantly, all stakeholders are here to collaborate, discuss, and agree on the next steps. I personally attended the last IGF in Kyoto late last year and the FSYS in Geneva a few weeks ago, and in this panel I’d like to challenge you all and ask, why do we need IGF, FSYS, and other formats? Do we realize the real value of these huge events, going there and discussing and discussing using the same key words and phrases? Do you really see any threats to the future of IGF, FSYS, in the light of the global digital compact? Maybe we need a change, maybe not. I encourage you to share your personal views and insights. You are all allowed not to read your instructions. I’m talking already ahead of our conversation, and I would like to have a very impersonal afternoon share of messages that would be very important during this period before the autumn next year. And of course, as the moderator mentioned, I have an honor to let also to give introduction remarks about global Internet governance processes, Ms. Carol Roach, the chair of IGF Multistakeholder Advisory Group.
