<br>
I am sharing here a call from the Freedom Online Coalition working group
“An Internet Free and Secure”, where I am member with several NCUC members and having Matthew Shears as Co-chair, <a rel="nofollow" target="_blank" href="https://www.freedomonlinecoalition.com/how-we-work/working-groups/working-group-1/">https://www.freedomonlinecoalition.com/how-we-work/working-groups/working-group-1/</a>. <br>
<br>
The Freedom Online Coalition is a group of governments who
have committed to work together to support Internet freedom and
protect fundamental human rights . The working group includes members from governments, business, civil society and
academia and seeks, through multistakeholder dialogue, to bring
human rights based approaches to cybersecurity debates and
policymaking. <br>
<br>
As part of an effort by the FOC to facilitate practical outcomes and
substantive contributions to key Internet freedom issues, the working group has
produced a set of recommendations that it believes are a substantive
step towards making cybersecurity policies rights respecting by
design. The working group is now seeking endorsements of the recommendations,
which are attached with an accompanying explanatory document. I am not asking here for endorsement from NCUC but looking for endorsements from NCUC members who would be interested to support the recommendations.<br><br>
The working group plans to formally launch the recommendations, with a
list of endorsements, at the upcoming Freedom Online Conference in
San Jose, Costa Rica, to be held 17-18 October 2016. <br>
<br>
if you have any question, Matt and me will be happy to answer them.<span><font color="#888888"><br></font></span></div><div><br></div><div>Best Regards,</div><div><br></div><div>Rafik Dammak</div></div><br></div></div><br>_______________________________________________<br>Ncuc-discuss mailing list<br><a ymailto="mailto:Ncuc-discuss@lists.ncuc.org" href="mailto:Ncuc-discuss@lists.ncuc.org">Ncuc-discuss@lists.ncuc.org</a><br><a href="http://lists.ncuc.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/ncuc-discuss" target="_blank">http://lists.ncuc.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/ncuc-discuss</a><br><br><br></div> </div> </div> </div></div></body></html>
