Internet  Governance  Unfolded: The Role of Internet Governance and End-User Engagement

This insightful panel discussion delves into the pivotal role of Internet governance in shaping our global digital future, with a special focus on the landmark WSIS+20 review and its pathway towards Agenda 2030. Our journey traverses critical milestones such as Net Mundial, the WSIS High-Level Forum, the Summit of the Future, and the discussions surrounding the Global Digital Compact.

These key events have laid the groundwork for a conversation that spans geopolitics, underscores the need for an inclusive governance model, and highlights the role of Internet end users in shaping the conversation and influencing the outcomes for a digital future that is human-centric, equitable, accessible, and aligned with the Sustainable Development Goals.
