<br>
Today marks the start of the WSIS Forum, a week-long event that brings together stakeholders to discuss sustainable development, the role of ICTs, and related policy issues.<br>
<br>
The Geneva Internet Platform (GIP) will provide just-in-time reporting from most sessions, and will publish a thematic summary after the event. Session reports will be available within a few hours of each session, at <a href="http://giplatform.us6.list-manage1.com/track/click?u=4fd1ca1d5793b4d797ce48eb0&id=c910b620a2&e=81839f8823" style="color:rgb(0,148,216);font-weight:normal;text-decoration:none" target="_blank">http://dig.watch/wsisforum2017</a><br>
<br>
We also invite you to join us for this afternoon's session on <a href="http://giplatform.us6.list-manage1.com/track/click?u=4fd1ca1d5793b4d797ce48eb0&id=b68c710845&e=81839f8823" style="color:rgb(0,148,216);font-weight:normal;text-decoration:none" target="_blank">Data Needs for Knowledge Societies: Defining Data Skills for International Organisations</a>, organised by the GIP, the University of Geneva, and DiploFoundation​.<br>
​<br>
I take this opportunity to share a few innovative updates:<br>
<br>
Last week, graduates of our Just-in-Time Course on Digital Commerce were in for a surprise, as they were awarded <strong>Blockchain Certificates</strong> in addition to traditional certificates. <a href="http://giplatform.us6.list-manage1.com/track/click?u=4fd1ca1d5793b4d797ce48eb0&id=01d81911d0&e=81839f8823" style="color:rgb(0,148,216);font-weight:normal;text-decoration:none" target="_blank">Read about it</a>.<br>
<br>
In a bid to assist our community in keeping track of the many policy events and their related deadlines, we have developed <strong>DeadlineR</strong>, a notification system built into the <em>GIP Digital Watch</em> observatory. With DeadlineR, our readers can receive reminders for deadlines to register for an event, to submit workshop proposals, to submit papers, etc. Try out the pilot version by visiting our <a href="http://giplatform.us6.list-manage1.com/track/click?u=4fd1ca1d5793b4d797ce48eb0&id=9ee9e31ddd&e=81839f8823" style="color:rgb(0,148,216);font-weight:normal;text-decoration:none" target="_blank">Upcoming Events section</a>.<br>
<br>
And also last week, our reporting team was in Tallinn, Estonia, for <strong>EuroDIG 2017</strong>. The team reported from sessions on digital rights, cybersecurity, digital commerce and trade, cryptocurrency, and more. <a href="http://giplatform.us6.list-manage.com/track/click?u=4fd1ca1d5793b4d797ce48eb0&id=36464d1b54&e=81839f8823" style="color:rgb(0,148,216);font-weight:normal;text-decoration:none" target="_blank">Read the reports</a>.<br>
