From ian.peter at ianpeter.com Fri Jul 1 01:27:06 2016 From: ian.peter at ianpeter.com (Ian Peter) Date: Fri, 1 Jul 2016 15:27:06 +1000 Subject: [governance] Update on CSCG Working Group Message-ID: <5EAB5C6AB25D495395096DFFA6BC015C@Toshiba> Folks, here is a summary of the progress so far of the CSCG Working Group – my personal summary, happy for any comments from other WG members or anyone else interested. Feel free to copy to other lists. GENERAL AGREEMENT SO FAR Maintain “coalition of coalitions” model Two year terms for coalition representatives, 2 reps per member, stand down after max two terms (4 years) before being eligible for re-election again Chair elected by members – can be from among members or an outsider Chair plus up to two co-chairs – co-chairs from member reps. Nomcoms are one rep per member coalition plus separate non voting chair Scope to remain solely to ensure a coordinated civil society response and conduit when it comes to making civil society appointments to outside bodies. Support to develop separate entity - but related body- to look at funding issues for civil society representatives travel (eg CSCG members might be trustees of new entity) ISSUES Some discussion has taken place on new coalition members, with a general agreement that this might include regional coalitions. However we need to clarify what procedures might be adopted for inclusion of regional coalitions and other potential new members. STILL TO DO REFINE AND EXPAND ON SUGGESTED DIRECTIONS ABOVE REVISE PROCEDURES OUTREACH ISSUES We hope to wrap up this work by end August.

Probably because I'm a Beotian in this "parrallel diplomacy" ... What would be very interesting is to know the CS participants, if any, in this process. Could anyone of our lists anwer this question (maybe Jeannette?) ?   Second it would be interesting to get the opinion of possible CS participants on the procedure and on the outputs of this 14th meeting.   Sorry to confess my ignorance of the existence of such a transatlabntic event (there were thirteen previous annual meetings!). Maybe my ignorance is due to the darkness around the activity of this "dialogue". It just looks like another version of TAFTA ???   I'm waiting anxiously for an answer :-)   Jean-Louis Fullsack     -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

If we take India we can think of as continent as population reaching 1.2 billion. A typical small state we can population minimum 20 million people and max 200 million. Most of people talk different languages. The rich poor divide even in cities like mumbia , new delhi soft ware and technology hubs we can see. with mobile penetration reached every villager ( around 500,000 villages ) and most of them are uneducated but they use mobiles and browse Internet Each state and each area will have different societies , different cultures different languages ) . on Average India requires at least minimum 15 languages translations to reach 29 states , 7 union territories people for better internet governance and also better open internet to make next 400 million to be part of main stream and to make ISOC and other stake holders plans Ideas thoughts to connect next 2.4 billion people who are middle class and un educated. As part of our over efforts and over all plans if we make a model to include all stake holders we can have one of greatest policy on internet governance and also save people form cyber attacks cyber thefts , human rights freedom of speech. and betterr lively hood better education. Most of Present Indian population is youth.

I understand the topic here is to harness support for this letter but I have two questions, if you don't mind. I'm assuming there's an ISOC chapter in Brazil and wanted to inquire: Beyond the allocation of IP addresses and name registration in the ".br" domain (coordinated by CGI.br), how is their work distinct from, and how does it overlap with, the work of CGI.br? What is the scope and content of your relationship? My second question is just a detail. Among the signatories I see "Barão de Itararé". Is it really that or a typo for Barão de Itacaré? Thanks again, and best regards.

I am interested in hearing from our group members on the following... Currently (and I think for the past few years), we (as ICG) have been having only one rep in the CSCG and it used to be one of the co-cos, each one serving one year and leaving the following year to the other co-co. This means, after Analia, I am the one representing us on the CSCG until the next one is elected. We can still discuss this way of doing if someone is not happy :) But my question is this: Now that these suggested changes withing the CSCG suggest we have two reps from each coalition member, I would love to hear your thoughs on how we, as IGC we will be dealing with nominating our representatives. My take is that we should not have both co-cos there but maybe have one co-co and have another member (to be chosen, process to be agreed on). I suggest we start thinking on this so that when the final work of the WG will be presented and agreed upon by all coalition members, we know what to do. I am part of that WG and will be happy to bring in these debates. Please do share your comments. And I am happy Ian is here as well and can contribute.  Hope everyone is doing well,A ------------------------------------------------------Arsène Tungali,IGC Co-Coordinator, Co-founder & Executive Director, Rudi InternationalFacebook - Twitter - LinkedInInternet Governance - Blogger - ISOC Ambassador - ICANN Fellow - Child Online Protection Evangelist.

Probably because I'm a Beotian in this "parrallel diplomacy" ...What would be very interesting is to know the CS participants, if any, in this process. Could anyone of our lists anwer this question (maybe Jeannette?) ? Second it would be interesting to get the opinion of possible CS participants on the procedure and on the outputs of this 14th meeting. Sorry to confess my ignorance of the existence of such a transatlabntic event (there were thirteen previous annual meetings!). Maybe my ignorance is due to the darkness around the activity of this "dialogue". It just looks like another version of TAFTA ??? I'm waiting anxiously for an answer :-) Jean-Louis Fullsack   ____________________________________________________________ You received this message as a subscriber on the list:     governance at lists.igcaucus.org To be removed from the list, visit:     http://www.igcaucus.org/unsubscribing For all other list information and functions, see:     http://lists.igcaucus.org/info/governance To edit your profile and to find the IGC's charter, see:     http://www.igcaucus.org/ Translate this email: http://translate.google.com/translate_t -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

The first six months of 2016 have seen a series of important changes in the information policy space in India and internationally. Debates on net neutrality, Aadhaar and Internet Shutdowns raised important legal and policy questions in India. At the global stage, the completion of important transformations like the WSIS+10 process, and the IANA transition have given the global internet governance regime a new mandate. It has been our privilege to be closely involved with these processes. The attached newsletter offers a mid-year update about the work that we have done so far at the Centre for Communication Governance in 2016. The highlights include: - A lecture on surveillance in India as a part the Mellon Sawyer seminar series at UC Davis. - Academic sector membership of the International Telecommunication Union. This will help tremendously with our research. - Participation in the WSIS forum this year as a high-level facilitator for the event. We also co-hosted a panel on the Working Group for Enhanced Co-operation. - A research paper on human rights in the WSIS process, that brings nuance to the articulation of human rights on the internet at the international level. - TRAI adopted our freedom of expression and constitution law arguments in its explanatory memorandum to the Prohibition of Differential Tariffs for Data Services Regulations, 2016. - Our table detailing all Internet Shutdowns in India was submitted to the Indian Supreme Court as a part of a petition challenging the practice of Internet Shutdowns. - Our memorandum on the Aadhaar money bill was submitted to petitioner challenging the money bill before the Supreme Court of India, and our opinion piece criticising the legislation was circulated widely. I invite you to take a look at the work the Centre has produced so far. We have several interesting projects, including one on multistakeholderism in internet governance, that we shall be sharing with you at in the coming days. We thank you for your continued support and welcome your feedback about how we can do better.

CGI.br is a commission created in 1995 by the federal government. Since 2003 it became truly multistakeholder as its majority of non-government members is elected by their consituencies. The attributions of CGI.br can be seen in detail in this 2003 decree (in Portuguese): http://www.cgi.br/pagina/decretos/108 You of course can read it, but most other people in this list can't, so here is an English summary of CG's structure and mission: http://www.cgi.br/about This goes far beyond managing ".br" names and IP numbers -- which CGI.br actually does not manage by itself; it supervises the actual work of NIC.br, the non-profit NGO which runs all services, resources and projects related to CGI.br's mandate. The Brazilian chapter of ISOC was born much later, after a protracted process initiated in the late 90's. It is still a minimalist organization, with practically no resources, basically participating in events and running an internal discussions collective on Internet and IT issues -- now with more than 1,100 members, nearly all non-paying, and less than 5% actually participating somehow. About Barão de Itararé (the journalist and pioneer political humorist in Brazil), since you read Portuguese, see: https://pt.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bar%C3%A3o_de_Itarar%C3%A9 We are so sorry he is not alive during these times of political turmoil and prevalence of incredible gangsterism in politics in the country. He would be so overwhelmed with prime material... Hope this helps. :-) fraternal regards --c.a.

I am interested in hearing from our group members on the following... Currently (and I think for the past few years), we (as ICG) have been having only one rep in the CSCG and it used to be one of the co-cos, each one serving one year and leaving the following year to the other co-co. This means, after Analia, I am the one representing us on the CSCG until the next one is elected.

If the 2-rep proposal is adopted, it's either the IGC coordinators will move to the positions of CSCG reps and a new pair of coordinators will be selected or they will call for EOI for selection of reps in CSCG. In the case of the second, a coordinator who's interested in being a rep in CSCG is free to express interest; and if s/he's selected, a new coordinator will be selected. So I think.

This means, after Analia, I am the one representing us on the CSCG until the next one is elected. We can still discuss this way of doing if someone is not happy :)   But my question is this: Now that these suggested changes withing the CSCG suggest we have two reps from each coalition member, I would love to hear your thoughs on how we, as IGC we will be dealing with nominating our representatives. My take is that we should not have both co-cos there but maybe have one co-co and have another member (to be chosen, process to be agreed on).   I suggest we start thinking on this so that when the final work of the WG will be presented and agreed upon by all coalition members, we know what to do.

References: <99475970.3486110.1468544520171.JavaMail.yahoo.ref@mail.yahoo.com> Message-ID: <99475970.3486110.1468544520171.JavaMail.yahoo@mail.yahoo.com> Dubbed commonly  the 4th Industrial Revolution , the impact on societies of robotics and applications taking  away jobs from manufacturing, retail sectors etc..is a significant issue for equitable sustainable development. Current solutions are still focused on the benefits of technology rather than balancing with solutions focused on  risk mitigation for populations impacted by the fall out of the 4th industrisl revolution. Who will be left behind ? How will society deal with mass job loss ?.  The speed of technology application impacting job loss is speeding up. Civil society must start to dicsuss and develop solutions to share with other civil society groups ,and the UN bodies that will take an interest in these issues for the future such as ILO. We have the opportunity to develop best practice methods for solution finding for organizations. Technology has a tremendous role to play in balancing resource allocations (applications) for stable socities. UN resources must be initiated  to getting performance measurement statistics in place  so as to monitor the risks for peoples displaced by technologies. UN WSIS focused on access for IT for all to provide equitable opportunities. Civil society must now play a key role in solution finding to balance the social impacts of job displacement by technology for sustainable development...

Civil society should build a focus group in the area of patents, licensing and technologies as it impacts labour supply not just skills, as it is a key to the allocation of wealth and the management of labour (job loss, is not just skills related it is actual displacement ) in to the future, if global birth rates are sustained at current levels...this is about access to technology. In the past WSIS stakeholders have really promoted sharing of technological knowledge...so we have already have an early interest in this area of work and the monitoring of it.... Simple example. If the recipe for making cakes had not been shared but patented , there would be one global baker using a robot cake machine  and not a cake baker in every city as now...so lots of cake making jobs were sustained...Even the most complex of technology developments may have to take this route for evolution at a certain level , whatever that level may be, to minimize net job loss in the interim / short term for social stability....this may also provide enhanced creative opportunities for the future... Job losses of the future must be managed by society as the numbers will be too large to be easily assimilated by the general job market place  plus..to address the current IT skills gap , civil society should actively support the IT education of the 40 to 65 year olds ...in to the future we will need less technically qualified people as AI develops sophistication....this is the real issue then...and we need to start planning now as the current global  talk suggests....

One of the most important question for us. I have addressed many lists. And i know, many friends act on different lists. Maybe, sometimes we bring the different discussions together. This question is not only for jobless people or for that, what some people say, "extension of human capital". A terrible term. We act, or the most of us, for a telecommunication that can interconnect all people on our planet. And we do it mostly, because we have the experience, how strong was this system to help us in our own development and activity. But we have also another layer. We say, all this terrible destruction of nature, culture, history, knowledge and so on, what we see in the last decades, centuries and so on, we can stop, if the people are interconnected. And, in a positive direction, all our understanding of the laws of the nature, the basic for our technology, the materialisation of the law of the nature, we can strong accelerate, if we cooperate globally in an free and open space for all people. A fantastic perspective. Then we never will have any problem with the development and distribution of our Internet. For that we can say: the inter-connection of any device or the inter-connection of all local networks with her devices. Physically, of course, all devices. And the people use the devices for her communication and information exchange. We know, knowledge is a common resource. We know it from ourself, we know it from other people. All our knowledge is based on that, what other people before and today created and published. Never any person alone can work. The patent rights suggest, we as a individual person can create something alone. This is a big nonsense, a religion. But we, with our experience and understanding, can say, we ignore all this nonsense. We never use it, we never recognize it. It is more a decision for us self, like with all religions. They are depend, that the people believe. And we have the experience, that if nobody follow, nothing exist of that. Only a paper maybe. I speak here consciously to a group of enlightened people. And i speak here to activist for a free and open interconnection of all people on our planet. I am atheist and i go only in a church to see the used technology in our history. Therefore, i am not interested for dogmatic propaganda. In my concentration to the internet the technology to realize stay always in the foreground. The first part, the theoretical discussion about structures and methodologies, is for me clear. We have it, if we want. The transport of the digital data in packetform over any geografical distances is the most important part, what we have to organice. And not with Kb, Mb, or little Gb. No, with Tb. But i know, that in this lists the most people people don't like to work with experimental and theoretical physic. They like more to repeat all this Governance rethoric. Papers for papaers, texts for texts. Endless without a clear perspective. We know, our Internet we can only create in a global cooperation in the technical sphere. The people in the regions have to be able to organize the internet in his region. And only the IP header we need for our interoperability. That we understand the elements in this language. And how we transport the data is not important. Only the non-alteration is important. The result for me is the free technology. Free for participate, free for using the result, for all people on our planet. The principles: "global thinking, local doing" and "knowledge is always worldheritage". many thanks and greetings, willi Manaus, Brasil -------- Weitergeleitete Nachricht -------- Betreff: [governance] management of technology patents, licenses and royalty agreements focus group on impacts for labour / jobs, not just IT skills Datum: Fri, 15 Jul 2016 04:09:36 +0000 (UTC) Von: amalidesilva at yahoo.com An: Internet Governance Just a thought....

This is about transparency. Transparency is important because it allows those outside the room to oversee the processes, the debates, and the discussions that are taking place. It allows us to make sure they are not being abused by those inside the room who may be looking to further their own interests at the expense of everyone else. To be clear, I am not insinuating that that is happening here. I am simply saying that transparency in processes of agenda setting and decision making feeds directly into building legitimacy in these same outputs, and is something we should all be encouraging, in every forum.

It is not so much about trust, or even about raising issues. As Ayden stated, it is about transparency.

However, the Chatham House rules has enabled and allowed people to freely speak their minds where they would otherwise feel more guarded so it has been easier for others not from civil society to make frank comments that are not attributed to their organisations. This has been useful in creating and fostering trust that leads to the dialogue. I can say though that if you go through the IGF Secretariat website in terms of the retreat, more or less the discussions are generally the areas of strengthening and enhancing the IGF and you can view Background Documents: http://www.intgovforum.org/cms/2016-06-23-15-15-52/background-documentation On Sat, Jul 16, 2016 at 9:26 AM, Johan Helsingius wrote: > Sala, > > > I know it's difficult but you have to trust that civil society reps: > [...] > > are raising that which needs to be raised and if u feel heavily about > > any agenda item on the website today feel free to send all 5 of us a > note. > > It is not so much about trust, or even about raising issues. > As Ayden stated, it is about transparency.

So, let's continue allowing time to our reps since they are aware of our expectations as CS but as well those from the broader IG community. We clearly shared concerns and expectations. Thankful for most of our CS reps who are sending away tweets. I actually see more tweets (using #igfretreat) from CS than anybody else (wondering where are the other stakeholder groups reps). Plus, not everyone uses Twitter :) Today is last day, let's hope for the best:) ---------------------Arsene Tungali,IGC Co-coordinator at arsenebaguma+243 993810967 (DRCongo)Sent from Yahoo Mail for iPhone (excuse typos and brievity) On Saturday, July 16, 2016, 5:37 PM, Wisdom Donkor wrote: Hello Ayden, As much as I agree with you in all points raised lets also have hope in the team we the community presented.

(See https://www.whitehouse.gov/the-press-office/2016/02/09/executive-order-commission-enhancing-national-cybersecurity .) I am one of the 12 designated commissioners. Recognizing that trust is hard to build and easy to destroy (and a variety of things have happened over the last 20 years have occurred to do the latter), one issue that has come up is the enormous gap of trust between the U.S. government and the information technology (IT) community, from which many IPers are drawn. This rift is not helpful to either side, and I'd like to solicit input from the IP community about what you think the government can do or refrain from doing to help bridge that gap. It would be most helpful if you could three things in your response: 1 - Your best examples of things the government (and what part of the US government) has done to alienate the IT community specifically. (Or, at the very least, show how the examples you provide connect to the interests of the IT community.) 2 - Things that the U.S. government could realistically do in the short and medium term (i.e., 0-10 year time frame) that would help bridge the trust gap. If your answer is "Don't do dumb things!", it would be better and more useful to provide *examples* of what not to do. 3 - Things that the U.S. government could realistically do in the longer term to do the same. Please send your responses to CENCinput1 at gmail.com. (I set up this email address, but I'd like to keep the traffic separate from my non-Commission work email.) I promise to read as many as I can individually and share what I learn with the commission membership. Also, feel free to circulate this call for input to anyone else you feel would want to comment.

The problem are : - where to put it - where to get the money from. - what is the political impact. - Where? where the RFC 1958 Internet architecture tells it : at the fringe, i.e. on the user side. It means ***outside*** of the internet. i.e. along the principle of subsidiarity? This has been already documented by the WG/IDNA2008 chaired by Vint Cerf, but not fully built upon by the IAB (RFC 5895). - who is to pay for it? the users. Problem ; they will want something in return. Control on the added intelligence in their layer six interface/box: i.e. freedom to chose their RFC 6852 Global Community. And therefore the referential service to their smart interface. i.e. their e-nation. Impact ? a choice must be done: - either no security and keep ICANN/IANA for everyone, - or security --- and ICANN/IANA only for the US Citizen --- and new IANA zones (ex. DNS Classes) for the other nations. I am afraid this was what was voted at the DubaI ITU 2012 meeting against the NSA, so they were happy with the Snowdenia derivative. After 30 years they keep restaining the world, strangling innovation, in the hope of an impossible solution. The network is quite stubborn. An open distributed network cannot be US centralized. This is the US BUG: if they want to dataoms work their way, the US are to "Be Unilaterally Global". Something that most do not want.

Democratic Republic of Congo Le Samedi 23 juillet 2016 1h31, Lynn St.Amour a écrit : Dear colleagues, First, thank you Chengetai (especially as this is during your vacation). And, thank you to everyone in the IGF secretariat and DESA who worked so hard to pull this report together.  Thanks also go to all who participated in or helped organize the retreat and to those who submitted comments in advance of it.  Those contributions and the great spirit of collaboration should serve the IGF and all of us well as we continue this journey. As Chengetai indicated, this Retreat document is posted online and is intended to serve as a record of the retreat proceedings.  There is the possibility to comment on the entire document at the end (blog style). Public Consultation: Additionally, we are preparing for a public consultation.  A compilation (organized by topic) of the ideas and suggestions that emerged from the retreat will be made available in a format that permits paragraph by paragraph commenting.  This public consultation will be open until 26 September, 2016.  Please share your comments and additional suggestions for review by the community, and as input to the 2016 Internet Governance Forum (IGF): ‘Enabling Inclusive and Sustainable Growth’, scheduled to take place from 6-9 December 2016 in Guadalajara, Mexico. We expect to open this Public Consultation no later than the 27th July, 2016. Finally, for those who may be interested, the process followed during the retreat was the following: - retreat agenda agreed after public comment period and review by retreat participants - each session was facilitated by 2 retreat participants, and supported by 1 session rapporteur (also a retreat participant) - most sessions used break-out groups (except for introductory and summing up sessions) - a rapporteur was chosen for each break-out group (a retreat participant chosen by the group) - each break-out group rapporteur reported back to the full group and the session rapporteur captured the comments - additionally, all the DESA/IGF secretariat personnel took notes and these were synthesized into the facilitator's session reports, which all participants were asked to review Please do circulate within your networks the Retreat Proceedings, and when it is launched, the Call for Public Consultation.  Thank you in advance for your support and for your own reviews and comments.

Message-ID: Hi Please find info on how to contribute to Best Practices Forums ---------- Forwarded message ---------- Date: Wed, Jul 27, 2016 at 7:23 AM Subject: Join and contribute to the work and awareness/outreach of the IGF BPFs! Dear All, The work of the 2016 IGF Best Practice Forum’s is well underway and is helping pave the way to IGF 2016 in December this year. The Secretariat would like to take this opportunity to encourage and invite all stakeholders to participate in these diverse activities. A brief summary of how you can participate in the BPF processes follows below. Please also feel free to contact the Secretariat directly and/or the co-facilitators of the BPFs (cc'd here) for further information about how you can get involved and ways in which your respective stakeholders can join the work if they are not already. (Cybersecurity- Markus; IPv6- Izumi and Sumon; Gender and Access-Jac and Renata; IXPs-Sala and Douglas; Anti-Corruption-Mike N.) BPF Gender and Access: Following its work on online abuse and gender-based violence against women in 2015, the BPF Gender is currently investigating ways to ensure equal and meaningful access to the Internet regardless of gender. To plan and further its work, the BPF holds meetings every two weeks, but also offers other simple ways for stakeholders to get involved: Complete the BPF’s survey, aimed at mapping existing initiatives and research in the field of gender and meaningful Internet access. http://bit.ly/surveybpgen Join an in-person or virtual webinar, hosted at various national and regional IGF meetings. To learn more about the webinars and other ongoing work, join the BPF’s mailing list. http://bit.ly/bpgenlist BPF on IPv6: Understanding the commercial and economic incentives beneath a successful IPv6 deployment “Why adopt IPv6?” and how IPv6 Task Forces and capacity building initiatives play in encouraging IPv6 adoption was at length discussed by the 2015 BPF on IPv6. However, the decision to adopt IPv6 is not only a technical one. Building upon last year’s work, this year’s BPF IPv6 will focus on the economic incentives and commercial drivers behind the decision to adopt IPv6. The BPF wants to reach out to organisations which have commercially deployed IPv6 and willing to share their experiences. If you want to contribute, assist in reaching out to the commercial and business community, take part in the brainstorming and help to shape the 2016 BPF outcome document you can join the “bp_ipv6” mailing list and participate in the regular virtual meetings. Subscribe to the BPF IPv6 mailing list and keep track of the BPF’s progress at http://www.intgovforum.org/cms/best-practice-forums/bpf-ipv6 BPF on Internet Exchange Points (IXPs) The 2016 BPF on IXPs is currently finetuning its scope and goals and wants to target relevant decision makers in the policy, business and regulatory environments. It was felt that after last year’s focus on creating and setting up IXPs and identifying an IXP’s stakeholders, it would be natural for this year’s BPF to focus on growing and further developing an IXP. IXPs can play a substantive role in achieving the UN Sustainable Development Goals by in enabling access and contributing to an inclusive and sustainable growth in their geographic area. The BPF on IXPs is seeking to widen its group of contributors and obtain best practices and lessons learned from different stakeholders and organisations, different geographic regions and form individual IXPs. To join the discussions and to contribute one should subscribe to the mailing list and take part in BPF’s virtual meetings. All information on the BPF on IXPs can be found at http://www.intgovforum.org/cms/best-practice-forums/bpf-ixps BPF on Cybersecurity: Reviewing the outcomes of both the IGF Spam and CSIRT Best Practices Forums over the last two years, there was an emerging consensus from the community that the 2016 cybersecurity BPF would most benefit from addressing cooperation and collaboration between stakeholder groups as a topic. The community has expressed that all stakeholders may benefit from having a multi-stakeholder discussion, including each of the major IGF stakeholder groups, on how to engage and communicate with each other on cybersecurity issues. There is also a feeling that this would be uniquely fit for an IGF BPF. Currently, the BPF on Cybersecurity is conducting an open call for inputs/contributions to gather initial inputs from the community which will subsequently form the basis for the group’s output documentation. All are invited to contribute to this call for contributions. Sign-Up to Participate in the 2016 BPF on Cybersecurity and Contribute on the Mailing List: https://www.intgovforum.org/mailman/listinfo/bp_cybersec_2016_intgovforum.org BPF on Anti-Corruption Work on the new IGF BPF on Anti-Corruption is underway, to learn more, sign up to the dedicated mailing list: http://www.intgovforum.org/mailman/listinfo/bp_anticorruption_intgovforum.org Regards, IGF Secretariat -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

You can watch the introductory video and first module - Human Rights - on the online training YouTube channel . And you’ll be able to pose questions to experts in the field on issues raised in this module at an online Q&A on Thursday 4 August, 13:00 UTC. To join, follow this link on the day, and go through the on-screen prompts. See below for more information, and check here for regular updates on subsequent modules and the dates of upcoming Q&A sessions. Please feel free to share with anyone who might be interested. Best wishes, Daniela ---------------------- Watch our new online series on cyber policy for human rights defenders We’re delighted to unveil our new online training series “How to engage in cyber policy: tools for human rights defenders”. The series is a core part of the training component of GPD’s cyber capacity building programme (CCB) , and aims to help human rights defenders develop the tools, skills and knowledge they need to engage effectively in cyber policy debates. Developed in collaboration with the CCB Advisory Board , the series is structured around five modules. The first four each focus on a different aspect of cyber policy - human rights, cybersecurity, regulatory frameworks and cyber capacity building - with a final regional module highlighting how these apply in Africa, Asia and Latin America. Each module consists of several videos, which take participants through a key cyber issue or concept - explaining how it relates to human rights, who the key actors are, and how and where to engage. The videos in each module are complemented by a live Q&A session (see below), allowing viewers to pose questions to experts in the field and debate issues raised in the module. The series has been designed as a public resource and will be open to everyone interested. The introductory video and first module - Human Rights - is already live on the online training YouTube channel: watch them here. Subsequent modules will be uploaded to the channel on a week by week basis throughout August. We’ll be updating this page as the modules go up - and you can also follow @GlobalPartnersD for updates. See below for the schedule of the live Q&A sessions. Q&As schedule Live Q&A sessions will be hosted on Webex.
