[bestbits] Day 1 update from the WSIS Forum

Tue Mar 20 05:47:36 EDT 2018

Hello everyone,

As you know, the WSIS Forum is taking place this week in Geneva. The Geneva
Internet Platform is providing just-in-time reporting from most of the
sessions. We hope this is a way to enhance inclusiveness and to assist
those that had conflicts of agenda and could not attend a session of
interest. A final report will be produced at the end of the week with a
general overview of the event.

The reports from individual sessions that took place on day 1 can be found
below. This initiative is made possible with the support from ISOC and
ICANN.

All the best wishes,
Marilia
