<div dir="ltr">Dear NCUCers,<div><br></div><div>I would like to share with you attached the program of the event "ICANN and the future of Internet Governance" that the Center For Technology and Society of FGV and ICANN are co-organising on the 14th of September here in Rio de Janeiro. I have been working with Daniel Fink, responsible for Stakeholder Management Engagement in Brazil, and we attracted a good non-initiated crowd of attendees.</div><div><br></div><div><div><font color="#000000">The event will be comprised of four
sessions: 1. Introduction to ICANN and its role in the context of
Internet governance; 2. Transition of the IANA functions and ICANN's
accountability; 3. ICANN and development: conditions for greater
competitiveness on the domain name sector; 4. ICANN and Human Rights. </font></div><font color="#000000"><div><span lang="en"><br></span></div><div><span lang="en">The purpose is to update the interested community and to debate
how to strengthen the participation of developing regions of the world
in the Organization. </span></div><div><span lang="en"><br></span></div><div><span lang="en">Unfortunately, there will not be streaming, but the sessions will be recorded and made available online. It will probably be interesting to our Portuguese/Spanish speaking members.</span></div><div><span lang="en"><br></span></div><div><span lang="en">We are also planning to write a blog post with an overview of the discussions for ICANN Latin-american newsletter. If you think it is useful, we could translate into English and publish in NCUC website?</span></div><div><span lang="en"><br></span></div><div>Best wishes, </div><div>Marília</div></font></div><div><div><br></div>-- <br><div class="gmail_signature"><div dir="ltr"><div><b><font size="2" face="arial, helvetica, sans-serif">Marília Maciel</font></b></div><div><font size="2" face="arial, helvetica, sans-serif"><font color="#444444">Pesquisadora Gestora - </font><font color="#444444">Centro de Tecnologia e Sociedade - </font><span style="color:rgb(68,68,68)">FGV Direito Rio</span></font></div><div><font size="2" face="arial, helvetica, sans-serif"><font color="#666666">Researcher and Coordinator - </font><font color="#666666">Center for Technology & Society - </font><span style="color:rgb(102,102,102)">FGV Law School</span></font></div><div><font color="#666666" size="2" face="arial, helvetica, sans-serif"><a href="http://direitorio.fgv.br/cts" target="_blank">http://direitorio.fgv.br/cts</a><br></font></div><div><font color="#666666" size="2" face="arial, helvetica, sans-serif"><br></font></div><div><font color="#666666" size="2" face="arial, helvetica, sans-serif">DiploFoundation associate - </font><span style="color:rgb(102,102,102);font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif;font-size:small"><a href="http://www.diplomacy.edu" target="_blank">www.diplomacy.edu</a></span></div><div><font color="#666666" size="2" face="arial, helvetica, sans-serif">PoliTICs Magazine Advisory Committee - </font><span style="font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif;line-height:14px;font-size:small"><a href="http://www.politics.org.br/" target="_blank">http://www.politics.org.br/</a></span><br></div><div><span style="color:rgb(102,102,102);font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif;font-size:small">Subscribe "Digital Rights: Latin America & the Caribbean"</span> - <span style="font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif;font-size:small"><a href="http://www.digitalrightslac.net/en" style="color:rgb(17,85,204)" target="_blank">http://www.digitalrightslac.net/en</a> </span></div><div><div><br></div></div></div></div>
