[Marilia Maciel]

(Sorry for any cross-posting)


Dear colleagues,


The Pan-*European dialogue on Internet governance (EuroDIG) **will take
place on 30-31 May in Belgrade, Serbia. *

* *

*The programme of the meeting is available
here<http://www.eurodig.org/eurodig-2011/programme>,
and will discuss issues such as privacy and anonymity, freedom of speech,
digital literacy and emerging internet services and bisiness
models<http://www.eurodig.org/eurodig-2011/programme/plenary/new-services>
**, **to name just a few.*

* *

Several factors may hamper physical attendance to the EuroDIG, such as
professional commitments and travel costs. *But staying in* *your home city
does not mean that it is not possible to follow the debates. There will be
interactive channels for e-participation. *You can follow the discussions
from home, watching the webcast of the event and* *participating in chat.
But it is also possible to organize *EuroDig hubs*.



*What are the Hubs?*

The hubs are local meetings that take place in parallel with the main
meeting. People can watch the webcast together and send questions (text or
video) that will be answered by panelists in EuroDIG. In addition, hub
organizers can hold debates to discuss the themes introduced at the Eurodig,
but from a local perspective. There are several advantages in creating a
hub: it helps to raise awareness about Internet Governance issues, it
fosters networking among participants and community building and it
encourages follow-up activities.
