[governance] Workshop on youth and IG?

[Lansipuro Yrjo]

Dear Ginger, dear all
 
I didn't have the chance to attend  workshop #86 in Hyderabad, but it appears from the comprehensive report 
http://www.intgovforum.org/cms/index.php/2008-igf-hyderabad/event-reports/72-workshops/356-workshop-youth-and-internet-governance-challenges-for-future
that at that workshop, a  lot of good ideas were presented, and they should be continue to be built on in Sharm el-Sheik. However, the discussion should not only be on the youth and for the youth, but also by the youth.  Young internet users (however defined age-wise) from various countries should be - to the largest extent possible -  in charge of the problem-defining, agenda-setting and planning of the workshop, using electronic collaboration tools. We should make sure that  the challenges and opportunities of Web 2.0 are seen and dealt with from the standpoint of young users themselves, rather than just by well-meaning adults.
 
 
Best,
 
Yrjö Länsipuro

		At the OC meetings there was a lot of interest in including youth in the IGF process. Rafik Dammak and Mariela Maciel have been working on this issue with several other interested groups (Government ofFinland, India and Egypt Youth). Please post your ideas and interest in a workshop on youth and IG on this thread.
