Cybersecurity in the Global South (21 July) 11:00 BRT (GMT-3)
https://law.yale.edu/yls-today/yale-law-school-events/governing-conversations-cybersecurity-global-south

This webinar aims at fostering debate of cyber norms, approaches and tools beyond the Global North narratives, with the ambition to explore the perspective of Global South stakeholders. Cybersecurity is central in international cooperation in the cyber domain, however, to strengthen a coherent and inclusive transnational governance approach in this field, particular attention should be paid on the fast-changing internet geography. Given that most of internet users are now located in the Global South, it is crucial to enhance a dialogue beyond Western-centric perspectives, and empower governments, business, and civil society actors from the Global South to play a key role in this debate.
By focusing mainly on low-income and middle-income-country perspectives, this webinar will aim at distilling relevant teachings and policy suggestions that may be useful for all stakeholders alike, regardless of their country of origin.

Speakers:

  *   Vanessa Copetti Cravo, Telecommunications Regulation Specialist & Member, Cybersecurity Technical Group of the Brazilian National Telecommunications Agency - ANATEL
  *   Mohamed Chawki, Senior Judge, Council of State of Egypt; Chairman, International Association of Cybercrime Prevention
  *   Andrea Calderaro, Director, Centre for Internet and Global Politics
Moderator: Luca Belli, Coordinator of the Center for Technology and Society at FGV, Director CyberBRICS
