Internet Governance Forum was created by the
World Summit on the Information Society as a <span>multistakeholder</span>
discussion
platform on Internet governance related issues. The
goals of the <span>IGF</span> are to
provide a platform for information exchange, identify
emerging challenges and
possible solutions to addressing them, provide
capacity building, identify and
disseminate best practices and forge partnerships for
concrete actions.</font></font></span></p>
