[NCUC-DISCUSS] Workshop at WSIS on 6 May

Sun May 8 17:23:24 CEST 2016

Mamadou and Hamza:

Most of us involved in the transition don’t like the term “internationalization” because it implies a multilateral or intergovernmental understanding of what the internet is. ‘Globalization’ of IANA was the original term used by the Montevideo Statement and it is much preferable.

Also I agree with Hamza’s formulation of the broader question: What is the « decentralized » Internet model of Internet governance that can be able to maintain the openness of the Internet? The point is not just “multiple stakeholders” but a global governance regime that avoids centralized  points of control and that protects the autonomy and choice of all the separate networks that together comprise the internet.

Hi Hamza

I would use "internationalisation" at the place of "descentralisation"

Hello Farzaneh,

ICANN’s decentralization “should demonstrate that a bottom-up, multi-stakeholder consensus process can produce outcomes that are good for the internet” (IANA) of course as an independent organization is involved in the process. IGMENA hangout will ask these questions How can ICANN support and enhance the multistakeholder model ? Maintain the security, stability and resiliency of the Internet DNS ? Meet the needs and expectations of the global customers and partners of the IANA services ? What is the « decentralized » Internet model of Internet governance that can be able to maintain the openness of the Internet ?

Thank you!

Thank you Hamza for publicizing this event. May I ask how the title came about? I find it hard to make the connection between IANA stewardship transition and decentralization of the Internet.

Best

Dear all,

Yesterday the NCUC hosted a very successful thematic workshop at the World Summit on the Information Society (WSIS) which brought into the public arena discussions around what hinders new voices from participating in Internet governance debates, particularly in the global south. Contributing to the rich discussion were panelists from across the ICANN community, including three NCUC members, who all greatly appreciated the opportunity to participate and to be present with us.

If you were not able to participate in this session, the Geneva Internet Platform and fellow NCUC member Michael Oghia have produced a wonderful summary of some of the key inputs which were harvested. You can read the report here: http://digitalwatch.giplatform.org/sessions/engaging-under-represented-communities-regional-and-global-internet-governance-debates

If a transcript of this session becomes available, it will be circulated to this mailing list.

Best wishes,

Ayden Férdeline
