[bestbits] Input on IGF 2014 format and main sessions

[Anriette Esterhuysen]

Dear all

There is a MAG meeting tomorrow and I would like your input on session
formats.

Should there be 'main sessions' or focus sessions?  How many? One a day
or only on the first day and the last day?

What should the format be of these sessions?

Should there be feeder workshops? Or Round Tables on a theme?

Should the MAG make an open call for policy questions around which these
focus/main sessions can be built?

Looking at the main and sub themes for this year's IGF, on which topics
do you feel main sessions/focus sessions are needed?


*Proposed Overaching Theme and Sub Themes for IGF 2014*

 

Proposed Overarching Theme: *Connecting Continents for Enhanced
Multistakeholder Internet Governance*

Proposed Sub Themes:

 1. Policies enabling Access
 2. Content Creation, Dissemination and Use
 3. Internet as engine for growth & development
 4. IGF & The Future of the Internet ecosystem
 5. Enhancing Digital Trust
 6. Internet and Human Rights
 7. Critical Internet Resources
 8. Emerging Issues

 


Thanks

Anriette
