The above is nonsensical.  It should be two or 3 sentences:

"To ensure that Internet governance and development take place in the public
interest, it is necessary for people who use the Internet to understand the
process of the administration of technical resources.

Internet users can also benefit from an understanding of the basic legal
instruments that exist in fields like cyber-crime,Intellectual Property
Rights, eCommerce, e-government, and human rights.
