I think the question for us is how we keep the bigger issues from being forgotten in this context. I hear one US presidential hopeful (Eliz abeth Warren) is raising the subjects, but some powerful Wall Street based Democrat financial supporters are threatening not to back her because of this. Data monetisation and surveillance capitalism are big issues not being addressed adequately anywhere yet. I hope we can raise this issue effectively.

And indeed the problems would already have been solved. But the simple fact is, the current global nation states Westphalian system is unable to deal with the complexity of a global network, and we have to look at how this might be done more effectively. Through the UN? Perhaps so. But their track record isnt brilliant. Not is the history of multistakeholder efforts, as Parminder is so quick to point out. So what do we do? Well the recent UNHLPDC came up with some sensible structural suggestions, many of them building on IGF foundations. But as that effort involved the World Economic Forum as well as the UN substantial sections of civil society will reject any such directions on ideological grounds without discussion as to whether they might provide a sensible path forward. I dont expect we will ever see agreement among civil society groups as to a single perfect model for addressing these issues, so why bother trying? Would it not be better for us to turn our attention to efforts we can make to contribute to the debate by highlighting the importance of such issues, without us having to come to some unlikely total agreement as to the perfect structure to deal with them before we take the smallest action or adopt the simplest statement?

In case you're wondering what we're up to...Bruna and I are prioritising the following activities over the next few weeks: - *Organising the day 0 event (November 25th) at the global IGF in Berlin * - *Update:* There is a dedicated thread for organising the civil society pre-event which has been set up, and we're currently discussing what could be on the agenda. We'll return to you soon with some ideas for your feedback and the broader involvement of everyone on the list so that everyone can help shape the event! - *Setting up an appeals team* - *Update: *You'll be receiving an email soon from Bruna about the process for setting up and selecting an appeals team, and a 'Nomcom' as part of that. We will need volunteers so please look out for this email! - *Information sharing call* - *Update: *We were thinking of having a bi-monthly catch up call with everyone to share information on what's happening with IGC. In particular, this will be an opportunity to ask questions, check in with what's going on on the list and make suggestions. We wanted to try the idea out at first with a call at the end of this month. Please fill in the doodle: https://www.doodle.com/poll/bnza3qxdw89w8cee Note, the doodle is timezone enabled and I am aware that the times indicated do not work for everyone, so if you have any ideas of how we can work around this going forward, particularly if we have these calls on a regular basis do let us know! - *Technical aspects (website, list etc)* - *Update: *We'll be in touch next week with those who have been involved in running the technical aspects of IGC in the past to make sure everyone who has been involved is happy to continue in their current roles/how responsibilities can be allocated going forward. Should you have any questions at all please don't hesitate to let us know.

Identify key thematic areas which we would like to focus on as the IGC and develop a Strategic Development Framework for engagement.Identify critical aspects of public policy that impact global public interest that may be relevant for IGC engagement from the WTO, WIPO, ETSO, ISO, ITU-T, ITU-R, IETF, NROs (such as APRICOT etc). 7. Identify how we can input into the IGF intersessionals such as the various Best Practice Forums and the Dynamic Coalitions currently and for next calendar year. If you have to create Working Groups and Leads etc. 8. To ensure that the Calendar is published and has dates on next call for elections, when the elections will take place. 9. Put in place an Appeals Team for the IGC consistent with the Charter; 10. Call for wide input into the 2020 IGF Themes for consideration by the MAG at the first Open meeting. 11. Identify and call for consolidated input from the IGC to the High Level Panel Report so the IGC can make submissions and a Statement at the IGF in Berlin. 12. Once we are sorted on where we stand in terms of strategic engagement, identify areas for collaboration with the other stakeholder communities such as the Technical community, Private Sector, and Public Sector. 13. Those are thoughts for now. 14. The Draft Statement that I had put on the list which was not acted on is an example of how to make calls for collaboration on Statements and usually we use an etherpad but that is for you to work out with the Technical community. I will encourage you to be swifter in responding to calling for consensus. The Draft that I sent to Bruna at the time was not actioned and is moot. These are things that as coordinators you can improve on for future. 15. I would also encourage you as coordinators to take criticism as not an attack on persons but on process and to be flexible and use it to become better administrators. 16. Whilst we are working on collaboration with other civil society stakeholders, we should primarily focus on strengthening the IGC and wake up the sleeping giant so it is a force for good. 17. You got this. You are both capable and well able and we are behind you. With every best wish, Sala -- -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

Date: Sat, 5 Oct 2019 09:58:18 -0400 From: Joseph Lorenzo Hall To: Joe Hall , Emma Llanso Fellow encryption advocates, First, thank you all and your organizations for signing on to the open letter to Facebook on end-to-end encryption. We released the first version of this letter at 12:30 US Eastern yesterday, with 59 organizations signed on [1]. We're currently at 69 organizations in total, with a few others trying to get through complicated clearance processes this weekend. We'd love to get any civil society and digital rights organizations that might feel similarly as all of us about the importance of the "digital glue" that holds up the Internet and digital devices. We have set a deadline of 23:59 UTC on Monday (17:00 US Pacific), so please feel free to send the document link (privately or on lists) to others you think might want to sign on, and have them send me email if they would like to be added: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1r97TeH8WsH5xyetolg-ejTTrvzWEMYiznu0WQ0YsaGM/edit (The language is set given how many signatories we have.) On Monday, we will close the letter and post a final HTML and PDF versions of the letter with what I suspect will be an amazing showing of solidarity for strong security for massive platforms like those that Facebook controls.

View this email in your browser Three things to expect from the WTO Public Forum 2019 *8-11 October, World Trade Organization, Geneva* The World Trade Organization’s (WTO) Public Forum is its largest annual outreach event. This year, the forum will take place from 8-11 October at the WTO headquarters in Geneva, and will provide a platform for participants coming from different sectors to discuss the latest developments in world trade and to propose ways of enhancing the multilateral trading system. Themed ‘Trading forward: Adapting to a changing world’, this year’s event will take us back to discussions that took place at last year’s forum, which focused on the changes influencing the evolution of the trading system, and will invite us to look into the future and discuss how the trading system can adapt to these changes. Here are three things to expect from this year’s WTO Public Forum: *1. There are fewer sessions dedicated to digital trade-related issues* The space dedicated to digital themes on the agenda of this year’s Public Forum is still considerable. However, there are fewer sessions which are fully dedicated to these issues, compared to previous years. This may seem counterintuitive, considering that digital technologies have been identified as key drivers of economic advances, making production easier, more efficient, and cheaper, and making services more tradeable. Nevertheless, it could be explained by the fact that the relative importance of other themes has augmented, such as the need to reform and strengthen the trading system. Several proposals on how to do it were advanced by member states throughout the year, and the forum provides an interesting opportunity to discuss them and to take into consideration the views of non-state actors on this issue. *2. The views of millennials and the generation Z will be sought much more this year* One of the sub-themes of this year’s Public Forum revolves around the question ‘What do Millennials & Gen Z want to see from global trade?’ The focus on younger generations is an innovation. Trade has long been considered a complex topic, apt to be discussed only by those with technical knowledge and expertise. This year’s approach to trade issues took an empirical turn: Considering the fact that younger generations are behind some of the key innovations and entrepreneurial advancements in global trade, the forum seeks to bring their views to the table, in order to better understand how the trading system can support them. *3. The interplay between trade and environmental issues takes prominence * There are more sessions dedicated to environmental issues than in previous years. This resonates with the broader societal movement that has galvanised actors around environmental advocacy and action, especially in the field of climate change. The #FridaysforFuture initiative – a people’s movement inspired by the call for school strikes from young activist Greta Thunberg – has become a symbol of this changing mindset. Although discussions on the impact of trade on the environment are not new, the interplay has always been controversial. While market liberalisation brings economic efficiency, it could also erode environmental protection granted by national legislation. Since environmental issues have not been chosen as a sub-theme of this year’s Public Forum, the growth of the topic seems to spontaneously come from the trade community that volunteered to organise sessions. Amid polarised views, it will be interesting to see the outcomes of this discussion. * Unable to attend the WTO Public Forum, or too many sessions to follow?* You can follow the updates of the Geneva Internet Platform and DiploFoundation, our team of rapporteurs will provide just-in-time reporting from selected WTO Public Forum sessions that relate to e-commerce and other digital trade-related issues. Bookmark the page: https://dig.watch/wpf2019 Link to event and reports page *Invitation: Trade norms on access to source code* If you are in Geneva, join us for our WTO Public Forum session, ‘*Trade norms on access to the source code: What is the impact on trade in services and development?*’, on Thursday, 10th October, from 10:15 to 11:45 CEST. Co-organised in partnership with the International Trade Centre (ITC), the session will discuss the legal and economic arguments advanced in favour of and against prohibitions on requiring the transfer of or access to the source code.

Review IGC Charter and Bylaws for necessary Amendment and to facilitate the process of Charter revision.  2. Review and finalize the decision about the "Publishing" of the following lists on the IGC Website:         i.  663 IGC Voters; who joined the Mailing List two months ago from the recent Elections (either to be published or not?),         ii. 148 IGC Voting Members; who validated their membership by endorsement on ballot papers         (Charter: "A list of the self-defined member-voters will be published after the election with the results of the election.")    3. Review, Plan and Implement the migration of the Mailing List from Riseup.net to IGCaucus.org. These points are also being added to the same etherpad link: https://pad.riseup.net/p/ZxiEs8bxISS2PzO-IGC-Q4-2019-keep Your inputs are welcome.

You can submit up to three issues and we suggest the following categories:  ·     Access & literacy ·     Media & content ·     Development of IG ecosystem ·     Security & crime ·     Human rights & data protection ·     Technical & operational issues ·     Innovation & economic issues The overarching theme for EuroDIG 2020 in Trieste is: *Towards a sustainable governance of the Internet. *It* *aligns with the themes that EuroScience Open Forum (ESOF) has identified, of which EuroDIG is going to be a satellite event next year. You are more than welcome to take this focus into consideration when submitting an issue. *Mark your calendars!* The *planning meeting* for EuroDIG 2020 is going to be on *January 16, 2020* in Trieste. More details will be provided soon. EuroDIG2020 is going to take place *10-12 June, 2020*, with a YOUthDIG program beforehand. *Deadline extended: contribute to „The Age of Digital Interdependence“* We have extended the deadline until *October 15* for all European stakeholders to comment “The Age of Digital Interdependence” by the UNSG High Level Panel on Digital Cooperation. We have received several holistic assessments via email by European governments and other stakeholders. This opportunity is open to everyone, and we invite all to *express their views via two complementary ways: on comment.eurodig.org  *you can *comment*  *on specific paragraphs of the report* and/or you can *send a more holistic assessment of the report and its findings* by sending a PDF document to digitalcooperation at EuroDIG.org . EuroDIG does not intend to consider itself as the only platform to discuss views on and possible follow-up actions to the findings of the report.   *EuroDIG Secretariat office at eurodig.org www.eurodig.org  * -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

The BPF is putting out a call for contributions to help understand and expose challenges, and gather examples and best practices of how digital technologies and the Internet can be used to promote, preserve and share local culture and content. The BPF would also like to identify best practices of how to manage and promote the digitisation of existing analogue content (printed and electronic media, cinema, music, visual arts etc.) and services. Please help us by sharing your experience, expertise, concerns, questions and examples of challenges and responses to those challenges. https://www.intgovforum.org/multilingual/content/local-content-bpf-call-for-contributions-on-preserving-and-sharing-local-culture-history-and There are only 6 questions and we would really appreciate your input.

While it is more than welcomed to see the theme of cultural an linguistic diversity being addressed in IGF during the UNESCO year of indigenous languages the reading of the 6 questions which are supposed to structure the issue makes wonder if the focus is the appropriate. Question 4 : How does the quality and type of their internet connection impact on the type of economic activity that women and LGBTQI engage in? For example, if they do not have access to affordable high speed broadband connectivity, or if their access is primarily through social networking platforms?Please list examples of how digital technologies and the Internet are used to promote, preserve and share local culture, history, language, heritage and content? Please add URLs or other references of these examples and provide a short description. While I agree that gender is a priority transverse theme I wonder if gender and LGBT is really a priority focus when talking about preserving local language and cultures. Question 5 :What type of economic activity do you think the BPF should focus its work on for us to come up with useful policy recommendations?Are there specific policy interventions and recommendations that the BPF should consider or develop in order to maximise the use of the Internet and digital technologies to help preserve, promote and share local language and cultural heritage? Maximizing the use of digital technologies is certainly a legitimate objective for technology and application vendors yet it may not be the real issue while discussing local content production: how about focusing "meaningful use"  rather than "maximized use", production rather than consumption? What matters is probably much more related to the themes of /information literacy and localization of languages /than to broadband connectivity.

It was part of the call for input for the Gender and Access BPF. When the Secretariat's tech support people put the call, they must have used the Gender call as a basis, and then accidentally left in some parts of the other call's questions. My apologies. It is confusing. Question 4 was supposed to just be: 4. Please list examples of how digital technologies and the Internet are used to promote, preserve and share local culture, history, language, heritage and content? Please add URLs or other references of these examples and provide a short description. Question 5 was supposed to just be: 5. Are there specific policy interventions and recommendations that the BPF should consider or develop in order to maximise the use of the Internet and digital technologies to help preserve, promote and share local language and cultural heritage? Your point about meaningful is important. It would have been a better term. I hope you put that in your response.

In-Reply-To: References: Message-ID: Dear everyone, dear Nnenna, as of today, the IGF Wiki is up and running here: https://intgovwiki.org/w/index.php/Home It's still in ints early stages, so bear with us. This week, we are talking to workshop leads and sending them all necessary information to get their workshop presented in the most interactive and sustainable way. But that not all. We want and need your support. You can contribute by: - *Preparing a wiki page for your workshop* to allow your contributors, speakers and co-organizers to plan and prepare for a good flow and outcome - *Collaborating with other workshop organizers* and the community to agree on definitions as well as analysis of the challenges, opportunities, options and trade offs in your area of interest. - *Contributing to pages on Data Governance, Digital Inclusion and Cybersecurity* to allow for more cohesion across workshops in those areas - *Helping to prepare Media Briefings* for your workshop and your topics. We are working with professors, students and media experts to gather information and quotes. *Get Involved* *All content on the site is created by community members who volunteered their expertise to build this for you. You can get involved as well.* 1. Send us an e-mail at *igf2019-onboarding at isoc-dc.org * 2. You will receive an invitation via e-mail to set up your account on the IGF wiki. 3. You will be provided with a digital onboarding to create and collaborate with the IGF community on the platform At this point we are specifically looking for people who have the time to help us by drafting content for the three key policy areas: Data Governance Digital Inclusion Security, Safety, Stability & Resilience They are still in draft stage. If you would like to join the Wiki team and help enrich the policy area descriptions, please get in touch with me. But already now you can see some valuable primers of how internet governance works, how our digital identities are constructed and how information and disinformation are managed - all on the Wiki. This is an exciting time: We're developing a common and shared knowledge base of Internet governance - so that we can all ensure the policy options going ahead are firmly anchored in best practices. Keep watching the IGF Wiki - there will be new content, including an IGF Dictionary, a collection of Internet myths which we will debunk and 80 visions on the future of internet governance by key IG movers and shapers in the coming weeks.

What is the goal and scope of the ethics discussion? I note the recommendation to qualify it as 'ethical use of data.' But I mainly hear of ethics in terms of safeguards on AI, which would go beyond a data oriented discussion. If this was meant to cover the discussion of fairness and ethics in AI, might it not be better to have a 'Emerging Technologies' section, where we could talk of the different approaches to AI, blockchain, 5g, etc., from ethics to data protection to human rights? Just on its face, I would hate to see the civil society agenda mainly discussing emerging technologies through a lens of 'ethics.'

Yes, the IGF Wiki is a media wiki, a knowledge hub which includes Wikipedia-like (but much extended) entries on key notions (we'll play them back into Wikipedia later), a workshop hub where all workshop leads can really present their workshop and interact meaningfully with participants, a research hub which into which we will upload OA Internet Governance research, a youth hub uniting contributions by NextGen people and a section on visions for the future. Most importantly: You are all invited to contribute. Especially the policy sections on data governance and security/safety/resilience would need a lead author/coordinator. If you are interested, just PM me.

To confirm the event is "Pre-event 43: Civil Society Coordination Meeting" and is taking place on Monday November 25 from 12:35 to 15:35. On addressing themes instead of initiatives, it was suggested elsewhere that we should try and develop a response to the HLPDC report in some way so that's why I put that down as a focus. I've adapted the schedule below to reflect the input so far, highlighting the changes in light yellow. If we could get volunteer facilitators for each session that would be great :) - any takers? Best Sheetal *---------------------------------------* Pre-event 43: Civil Society Coordination Meeting *Part 1 - 30-40 mins?* - Welcome and update on IGC (Bruna and Sheetal) - Expectations from the event (plenary) *Part 2 - 1-1.5 hours?* Issues (six issues) - Breakout led by different volunteers (e.g each group defines the issue, problem at hand, key forums/spaces where issues is being discussed, possible messages) - Multistakeholder initiatives in IG (w/ focus on High Level Panel on Digital Cooperation) - Cybercrime - Sustainable Development - Content regulation (w/ focus on Christchurch call) - Advancing Responsible State Behavior in Cyberspace (w/ focus on 1st Committee) - Emerging technologies (w/ discussion of 'ethics') - Plenary: each group shares summary of break-out group discussion *Part 3 - 45 mins?* Next steps, including IGC internal issues - How do we work together/collaborate on the issues identified? - Discussion of other issues including internal IGC which will necessitate working together On Mon, 21 Oct 2019 at 19:48, Peter Micek wrote: > Hi all, > > I agree with Farzaneh on combining into themes. > > What is the goal and scope of the ethics discussion?

We invite you to join us for this peer-learning event about utlising the potential of ICTs in strategies to mitigate and adapt to the climate crisis. *Event details* * Date and time: *Tuesday 26 November 2019 from 19:00 to 22:00* * Venue: *TBC* * Food: Refreshments will be served at 19:00 and a light dinner will be provided during the break. *An RSVP message will be sent once the venue is confirmed. * *Disco-tech on ICTs and environmental sustainability* The Association for Progressive Communications (APC) and partners are hosting their ninth Disco-tech event in conjunction with the 2019 Internet Governance Forum (IGF) in Berlin, on the evening of 26 November, in this ocassion with a focus on the environmental impact of information and communications technologies (ICTs). Environmentally sustainable ICTs are past due. In recent decades, predictions that capitalist innovations and ICTs would automatically solve critical environmental issues such as climate change have not only not been fulfilled, we have seen the opposite. The expansion of ICTs has spurred production, consumption and disposal of computers, mobile phones and networking devices, increased energy consumption and increased usage of transport and commerce, all of which are having adverse effects on the Earth’s natural resources and on humanity. Sustainability relates to the environmental and social implications of the materials, energy and labour involved in digital devices throughout the whole ICT cycle and ecosystem (including formal and informal workers in the tech and e-waste sectors, end-users, servers, network devices, cables, radiation). A circular economy makes the most of resources and minimises waste and pollution: used resources that become new resources, keeping materials and products in use, and regenerating natural systems. Historical data, simulations and real-time satellite observations can be processed quickly to track patterns and inform decision making. Yet access to environmental datasets is uneven at best, and many civil society groups around the world continue to experience barriers to access this information, despite improvements and commitments by governments to open data. We want to share, highlight, coordinate and find ways to scale up best practices of electronics producers and consumers, policy makers and civil society organisations who are doing something to achieve lasting environmental and social justice about and through technology and circular economy processes. We need to create more resilient societies that mitigate environmental and social impacts before climate change reaches crisis dimensions. While many initiatives have succeeded in creating individual and local awareness about the environmental impactof ICTs, much greater understanding is needed about how the tech industry can build more durable and environmental friendly devices, how our own devices work or can be repaired, modified or enhanced, and how devices can be reused and recycled for the benefit of our neighbours. Around the world, activists, engineers, researchers, social enterprises and others are acting to make ICTs part of the solution to the environmental emergency, and a great deal can be learned from them. *What will we do?* In this edition, Disco-tech will provide a safe space for participants to share their experiences in mitigating the environmental and social impacts of ICTs, and facilitate the cross-regional collaboration with key actors who can link local struggles and global action. Disco-tech 2019 will: * Explore the indicators, challenges and opportunities that define the situations we are facing and ways we can mitigate environmental impacts and improve social resilience. * Bring to light personal and collective stories of ways to handle the environmental impact of ICTs and improve people’s lives at an individual, national or regional level. * Share related strategies, initiatives and actions, including tech demos, policy ideas and advocacy strategies. Disco-tech is proactive. Presenters and participants will share best practices and visionary ideas and make connections that will have direct impact on their work. IGF attendees will be able to access our work at an exhibition booth throughout the conference. The booth is an exploratory space that will be used for formal and informal meetings and to amplify key actions from the evening event. *Provisional list of speakers* • Leandro Navarro, Pangea, Spain • Pavel Antonov, BlueLink, Bulgaria • Manfred Santen, Greenpeace, Germany • Alexandra Lutz, working at the European Parliament, France • Florencia Roveri, Nodo TAU, Argentina • Anulekha Nandi, Digital Empowerment Foundation, India • Kemly Camacho, Sulá Batsú, Costa Rica *About Disco-tech* Disco-techs are informal evening events that are designed as learning exchanges, to bridge the gaps between technical and political solutions to attacks on internet rights and freedoms. In order to ensure meaningful exchanges between techies, activists and policy advocates, informal discussions in a comfortable setting are sparked by stimulating short presentations during an evening event the day before a major forum like the IGF or RightsCon. Disco-techs have been held at the IGF since 2013 and have focused on Counter-surveillance and Cybersecurity (2013), the 16 Days of Activism to End Violence Against Women and Girls campaign (2013), Internet Censorship, Blocking and Filtering (2014), Privacy and Anonymity as Fundamental Rights (2015), Community Networks (2016), Criminalisation of Tech Expertise (2017), and Disability and Accessibility to the Internet (2018). A special Disco-tech on internet shutdowns in Africa was held on the eve of RightsCon Tunis in June 2019.

Please feel free to share the message below with your networks, and hope to see you at the launch! *   *   * We are very excited to let you know that the 2019 edition of Global Information Society Watch (GISWatch) will be launching at the IGF in Berlin on 28 November! This year, in partnership with ARTICLE 19 and with the support of Sida, we have put together a thought-provoking edition that addresses an important topic: the intersection of artificial intelligence and the various implications for human rights, social justice and development. The 2019 GISWatch report brings together 43 country and regional reports from across the globe, with a particular focus on the global South. In addition, the eight thematic reports are written by a diverse group of knowledgeable researchers and civil society activists addressing key topics such as AI through a transfeminist framework, the policing of people and the weaponisation of AI, among many other topics. Many of the authors will be in attendance to present their reports, and we hope you will join us as we launch this important collection! Date: Thursday, 28 November 2019 Time: 13.00-14.30 local time Where: Room IV (IGF venue) For more information, you can see the schedule here: https://igf2019.sched.com/event/URfv/launch-of-the-giswatch-report You can also read past issues of GISWatch here: https://www.giswatch.org/ Looking forward to seeing you there!

However, CGI.br is still up and running, not yet affected by this policy, and remains a good example of multistakeholder governance. [] fraterno --c.a.

The Symposium is jointly organised by of the Centre de Droit Public Comparé of Paris 2 University and the Center for Technology and Society of Fundação Getulio Vargas. The call for papers aims to - but is not limited to - analyse three fundamental dimensions of the debate concerning the “Digital State” with particular regard to: + The mapping and analysis of the organisational structures and attributions of existing Public Administrations that regulate digital technologies + The analysis of specific tools that Public Administrations are currently developing and using to digitalise their services + The analysis and/or comparison of national strategies currently developed or implemented to “digitalise” Public Administration. Submission should be preferably in French, but English studies will be accepted. The deadline for submitting a 2000 words abstract is 1st of December 2019. The accepted submissions will be discussed at the symposium, to be held at Université Panthéon-Assas (12 place du Panthéon, Paris) on 23-24 April 2020 and the finalised versions will be published by November 2020. Below you will find the English and French versions of the call. Please, feel free to share this CfP through your networks Best regards, Luca ENGLISH VERSION https://internet-governance.fgv.br/sites/internet-governance.fgv.br/files/publicacoes/call_for_papers_digital_state_3.pdf Call for Papers for the 2020 International Symposium on “The Digital State: Digitalisation of Public Administration and Public Administration of Digital Technologies” Deadline for participation: 1st December 2019 + Presentation of the Call for Papers Digital technologies play a pivotal role in virtually all our social, economic and democratic interactions and have become essential tools for all Public Administrations - be they at the state, sub-state or supranational level. In such context, Public Administrations find themselves frequently unprepared to meet the challenges of digitalisation, at a time when digital technologies are not an option anymore and become necessary to meet the imperatives of efficiency, cost reduction and effectiveness. The era of governmental reform through the creation of new independent authorities and agencies is now replaced by a new period of governmental restructuration, aimed at stimulating a transition to the “Digital State.” This new conception of the state is characterised by the digitalisation of public services, the extensive use of public and personal data, the introduction of algorithmic tools to automate decision-making, the encouragement to develop Artificial Intelligence applications to automate public sector functions and activities and the move towards the “platformisation” of the state. This call for papers aims to - but is not limited to - analyse three fundamental dimensions of the debate concerning “Digital State: Digitalisation of Public Administration and Public Administration of Digital Technologies”, fostering: a) The mapping and analysis of the organisational structures and attributions of existing Public Administrations that regulate issues which are categorised or can be categorised as “digital technologies”, or are essential for the functioning or have a strong link with “digital technologies”, such as electronic networks regulators, data protection authorities, online gaming or gambling regulators, etc.; b) The analysis of specific examples of tools that Public Administrations are currently developing and using to digitalise their services, for example by providing digital public services through platforms such as Nesta, in the UK, FranceConnect, in France. c) The analysis and/or comparison of national strategies currently developed or implemented to “digitalise” Public Administration. This research avenue can focus both on the analysis of overarching strategies for digitalisation, such as the Brazilian “Estratégia Digital”; on the development of public-purpose programmes aimed at “translating into data” all public administration and building digital public services, such as the French Etalab; and on capacity building strategies for the development of digital skills of public servants. All participants to this call are encouraged to reflect on the impacts that the Digitalisation of Public Administration and Public Administration of Digital Technologies deploy on the possibility to exercise fundamental rights and freedoms. Such analyses may consider and/or compare national, sub-state or regional frameworks. It is possible to analyse more than one of the abovementioned research avenues, for example by introducing the national digitalisation strategy of a specific country and, subsequently, exploring a specific programme or tool. Comparative studies, analysing the differences between several national approaches are encouraged, as well as multidisciplinary analyses, for example using data science to support the findings with empirical evidence; or economic analysis to explore the costs and benefits of a specific approach. The international symposium of the CDPC will take place on the 23rd and 24th of April 2020, at Université Panthéon-Assas, Paris 2, in Paris, France and the works presented at the colloquium will be published by November 2020. Contributions should be preferably be in French, but English studies will be accepted. + Timeline + Deadline for submitting a 2000 words abstract: 1st of December 2019 + Communication of selected abstracts: 15th of January 2020 + Deadline for sending a contribution of 5000 to 7000 words: 30th of March 2020 + Date of the symposium: 23rd and 24th of April + Deadline for sending a final contribution, between 6,000 and 8,000 words: 15th of July 2020 + Publication: November 2020 Abstracts must be sent to cdpc at u-paris2.fr and luca.belli at fgv.br using the subject line “Etat Digital - Digital State”. The authors of the selected abstracts will receive guidelines to elaborate and format their contributions. VERSION FRANÇAISE https://internet-governance.fgv.br/sites/internet-governance.fgv.br/files/publicacoes/appel_a_contributions_letat_digital_1.pdf Appel à contributions pour le Colloque international de 2020 consacré à « L'État digital: numérisation de l'Administration publique et Administration publique du numérique » Date limite de participation: 1er décembre 2019 + Présentation de l'appel à contributions Outils essentiels de la vie sociale, économique et démocratique du XXIe siècle, les technologies numériques ne sont désormais guère réservées aux spécialistes et deviennent un sujet incontournable pour les juristes de tous les pays du monde. Les administrations publiques - qu'elles soient étatiques, subétatiques ou supranationales - se trouvent bouleversées face à un processus de numérisation, souvent imposé, à un moment où le numérique arrête d'être une option et devient un choix nécessaire afin d'atteindre les impératifs d'efficacité et d'efficience. Dans ce cadre, l'époque de la restructuration par le biais de la création de nouvelles agences et autorités indépendantes est désormais remplacée par une nouvelle période réorganisatrice visant à stimuler une transition vers « l'État digital ». Cette nouvele conception de l'État se fonde sur la numérisation des services publics, l'utilisation de données publiques et privées, l'introduction d'outils algorithmiques, l'encouragement à développer des applications d'intelligence artificielle et le mouvement vers la « plateformisation de l'Etat ». Cet appel à contributions vise - mais ne se limite pas à - l'analyse de trois dimensions fondamentales du débat concernant « l'État digital, la numérisation de l'Administration publique et l'Administration publique du numérique, notamment : a) un travail de cartographie, d'analyse de la structure organisationnelle et des compétences des Administrations publiques existantes, ayant une fonction régulatoire en ce qui concerne des sujets catégorisés ou catégorisables comme "numériques" ou ayant un fort lien avec le "numérique", tels que les autorités de protection des données, de régulation des réseaux électroniques, des contenus, des jeux en ligne, etc. b) l'analyse d'exemples spécifiques d'outils que les administrations développent et utilisent actuellement afin de numériser leurs propres services, par exemple en créant des services publics numériques par le biais de plateformes telles que la britannique Nesta ou le dispositif français FranceConnect. c) l'analyse et la comparaison des stratégies normatives et institutionnelles actuellement développées ou mises en œuvre afin de « numériser » l'administration publique. Cet axe se concentrera aussi bien sur l'analyse de stratégies de numérisation globales et intégrées, comme par exemple la stratégie brésilienne « e-Digital » ; sur le développement de missions publiques permettant de « traduire en données » l'administration publique afin de bâtir des services publics numériques, comme par exemple la mission française « Etalab » ; et sur des stratégies permettant le développement de compétences numériques des fonctionnaires publics. Tout participant à cet appel est encouragé à réfléchir sur les impacts que la numérisation de l'Administration publique et l'Administration publique du numérique déploient sur le cadre régissant les droits et libertés fondamentaux, dans les contextes nationaux, subnationaux ou régionaux analysés faisant l'objet de la comparaison. Il est envisageable d'analyser plus d'un axe de recherche, par exemple en fournissant une introduction à la stratégie nationale à la numérisation de l'administration publique et, ensuite, en explorant un programme ou un outil de numérisation spécifique. Les contributions comparatives, analysant les différences entre plusieurs approches nationales sont privilégiées, aussi bien que les contributions multidisciplinaires, utilisant par exemple la science des données afin de supporter la contribution avec une analyse empirique ; ou l'analyse économique afin d'explorer les coûts et bénéfices de l'approche en question. Le colloque international du CDPC aura lieu les 23 et 24 avril 2020, à l'Université Panthéon-Assas, Paris 2 et les travaux présentés lors du colloque seront publiés en novembre 2020. Les contributions seront de préférence en langue française, mais elle pourront être acceptées en langue anglaise. + Chronogramme + Date limite pour l'envoi d'un résumé de 2000 mots : 1er décembre 2019 + Communication des résumés sélectionnés : 15 janvier 2020 + Date limite pour l'envoi d'une contribution de 5000 à 7000 mots : 30 mars 2020 + Date du colloque : 23-24 avril 2020 + Date limite pour l'envoi d'une contribution définitive, de 6000 à 8000 mots : 15 juillet 2020 + Publication : Novembre 2020 Les résumés doivent être envoyés à cdpc at u-paris2.fr et luca.belli at fgv.br en utilisant l'objet « Etat Digital - Digital State ».

I believe those of us with a history in these matters, going back some years now, know pretty clearly one of the distinctions. "In respective roles" acknowledges that, for democracy to work, representatives elected by the people make the final policy choice. Where the deliberative process, leading up to that policy choice, must also necessarily bring energetic input from the people, in this case represented now by the notion of civil society. Only then, with active citizen participation, is there any prospect for real democracy. "On an equal footing" disrupts this careful process of deliberation, then choice by elected representatives. Indeed, leaves no actual process. And indeed, division directly on this matter led to the creation of key groups in the civil society sphere. Again, with appreciation.

I'm writing here with a few updates from our end. First, we are in the process of organising the day 0 event at the IGF. There is a dedicated thread for this, called "IGF 2019 Civil society pre-event: planning and preparation" where next week I will follow up with more information/requests for support. Thanks to those who have already inputted and volunteered to help on the day! Second, very few people were available for an information-sharing call so that didn't happen. Instead, I have put together *a survey*, drawing on an email Salanieta sent around a couple of weeks ago, and where you can share your ideas on what IGC should be prioritising over the next 12 months and also what you would find useful in terms of internal communications. The survey is only 8 questions long and won't take more than 5-10 minutes of your time. It will help us shape our priorities and feed into the day 0 event so please do fill it out by 06 November: https://www.surveymonkey.co.uk/r/92WS6TN Third, the tech team is meeting online next week to discuss priorities and I will update you following our call with any relevant information. Finally, you will shortly be receiving an email regarding the "appeals team process" from Bruna, so keep an eye out for that! As ever, any questions - let us know! Best Sheetal.

We can tend to interpret these things differently, but still be in broad agreement. I certainly dont see multistakeholder consultations on policy development as usurping the roles of governments - and to me "on an equal footing" is specifically important in ensuring that civil society inputs are given the same weight and attention as the inputs of the business sector in such areas: because so often money talks and dictates policy, while community interests are forgotten. Yes, governments have to make the final call, for better or for worse: but what interests me is the way other stakeholders are involved in the process leading up to the decision and how inclusive such processes are. I see far more tokenism than real involvement. It's been great seeing the various examples and reports people have presented here, and its good to know we have some good examples.- thanks to all.
