The symposium will have the theme '<strong>India in the Open and Global Internet</strong>'.

In the first session, the following key points will be presented on:<br><strong> What are the key fears to an open and free Internet?<br> What are the key Internet governance issues surfacing in India?<br> How to further leverage the potential of an open Internet for strengthening social and economic development in India?<br> What are the opportunities to educate public and to improve their participation in the Internet Governance debates?</strong><br> The second session will host a round table discussion to generate broad thinking on positive ways by which India could broadly contribute to further the evolution of the Free and Open Internet. The round table is to bring a very broad discussion that would go beyond India's concerns as a Nation, and would bring up higher thoughts on ways of strengthening Internet Governance in a manner that is fair of the whole world. It would be a meaningful discussion on positive ways by which India could contribute to the Internet in a manner that it would further the progress of the Internet as a Free and Open eco-system causing worldwide prosperity and well being, as also point to solutions to increase global trust and strengthen the Internet Governance framework.
