> You are cordially invited to Workshop discussing National IG Mechanisms -
> Looking at Some Key Design Issues to be held on Day 3--Nov. 8, 14.30 to
> 16.00.
>
> Such is the unique nature of the Internet that its governance often calls
> for institutional innovations. The proposed workshop will look at a range
> of
> national level IG mechanisms across the world. While the discussion will
> refer to good models and practices in different countries, it will not be
> organized around simple show-casing of different national IG mechanisms.
> The
> discussion will centre around key contexts, requirements, challenges and
> possibilities. It will be directed towards examining key institutional
> design issues, functions and outcomes with regard to national level IG
> mechanisms with the purpose to help countries make appropriate decisions in
> their specific contexts.
>
> Some of these are;
> - How should the national commons of Internet resources be managed?
> - What kinds of mechanisms are appropriate for technical matters, what for
> those that are partly technical and partly social, and what for larger
> public policy matters, requiring more political responses?
> - Should there be a common single mechanism to address all the above kinds
> of issues, or different ones? How to coordinate different mechanisms, and
> different parts of the national governance machinery dealing with different
> aspects or kinds of IG issues?
>
> - How to ensure meaningful participation of all stakeholders in a manner
> that focuses on public interest?
> - How can the surplus from domain name registration fees etc collected by
> national IG agencies be employed for public interest purposes, especially,
> for taking up Internet related research.
