On 10 -11 March 2026, the ICANN85 NextGen Fellows
<https://www.icann.org/en/announcements/details/icann-announces-nextgenicann85-participants-12-12-2025-en>
gave
their presentations at the ICANN Community Forum
<https://meetings.icann.org/en/meetings/icann85/> in Mumbai. Eleven
presentations explored the evolving challenges of Internet governance
through a new generation’s lens. Across topics ranging from Universal
Acceptance and the emerging AI divide to encryption, DNS abuse, Internet
shutdowns, and digital sovereignty, speakers emphasized a common theme:
connectivity alone is no longer enough — true inclusion depends on
usability, trust, and meaningful participation.
