ICT4Peace Cybersecurity Policy and Diplomacy Workshop for ASEAN countries
in Singapore

*7 October 2015:* Hosted by the Government of Singapore, ICT4Peace, in
cooperation with RSIS, is organising a cybersecurity policy and diplomacy
course in Singapore (19 - 20 October 2015) for the ASEAN Countries. Invited
to participate are Diplomats, Government Officials and a limited number of
academics and representatives of Think Tanks from the ASEAN Countries. The
participants will be familiarised with the ongoing global (e.g. UN GGE),
regional (e.g. OSCE, ARF, AU, OAS) and bilateral cybersecurity negotiation
processes. They will acquire a deeper understanding of the most important
areas of diplomatic negotiations for a secure and open cyberspace, such as
the application of the international for the Cyberspace, norms of
responsible state behaviour as well as confidence building measures in the
cyberspace. An exercise will be carried out to test and deepen the
understanding of the topics presented.

The course will be completed with a discussion on the way forward for the
ASEAN Region in terms of cybersecurity policy. ICT4Peace has conducted this
course already in cooperation with the OAS for the Latin American Region
and with the Government of Kenya for 12 East African Countries. The next
course will be held in Cooperation with African Union in Addis Abeba, and
for the Diplomatic Community in Geneva in cooperation with GCSP, Geneva.

early 2011. Published in collaboration with the Berkman Center for Internet
and Society at Harvard University and GeorgiaTech, *Peacebuilding in the

ICT4Peace took root with pioneering research on the role of ICTs in
preventing, responding to and recovering from conflict in 2003 and lead to
the adoption of Paragraph 36 by the World Summit on the Information Society
(WSIS) in Tunis in 2005 which recognises *“...the potential of ICTs to
promote peace and to prevent conflict which, inter alia, negatively affects
achieving development goals. ICTs can be used for identifying conflict
situations through early-warning systems preventing conflicts, promoting
their peaceful resolution, supporting humanitarian action, including
protection of civilians in armed conflicts, facilitating peacekeeping
missions, and assisting post conflict peace-building and reconstruction".*

The *ICT4Peace Foundation* works to promote the practical realisation of
Paragraph 36 and looks at the role of ICT in crisis management, covering
aspects of early warning and conflict prevention, peace mediation,
peacekeeping, peace-building as well as natural disaster management and
humanitarian operations.
