[governance] Internet Bill of Rights events at the IGF

[Vittorio Bertola]

==== Workshop
“Towards an Internet rights framework: a work in progress”

Tuesday 13 November 2007
10:30 – 12:00
Room Versailles II

The “Internet Bill of Rights” coalition, founded at the Athens IGF, has 
been prompting for the last year a discussion on the appropriate 
instruments to further the advancement and enforcement of human rights 
over the Internet, and on the types of rights, both traditional and 
innovative, to be covered by such instruments.

After the introductory remarks of extremely distinguished panelists, 
coalition members will summarize the emerging trends from this year's 
work, as an input into an open discussion with the audience about 
possible next steps for year 2008.

This workshop aims to be a brainstorming session where communalities 
among the different views on this matter are extracted, so to lead to 
shared proposals and stock-taking commitments for immediate working items.

Panelists:
Hon. Min. Gilberto Passos Gil Moreira, Minister of Culture, Brazil
Prof. Stefano Rodotà, University of Rome, Italy
M.me Catherine Trautmann, Member of the European Parliament, France

Mr. Carlos Affonso Pereira de Souza, Fundaçao Getulio Vargas, Brazil
Ms. Robin Gross, IP Justice, United States

Moderator: Mr. Vittorio Bertola, Società Internet, Italy
