 <description>&lt;div class=&quot;abstract&quot;&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;locality&quot;&gt;HYDERABAD&lt;/span&gt; (Graciela Seilamen for RITS) -  	&lt;p&gt;“Throughout history, humanity has been able to challenge the most rigid power structures with its creativity and with the urge for freedom that is inherent to the human spirit. This has brought us here – we&amp;#8217;re a result of human hope, solidarity and tenacity.

 <title>Internet Governance Forum (IGF)</title>
 <link>http://www.apc.org/en/projects/internet-governance-forum-igf</link>
 <description> 	&lt;p&gt;The &lt;a href=&quot;/www.intgovforum.org&quot;&gt;Internet Governance Forum&lt;/a&gt; is a &lt;a class=&quot;glossary-term&quot; href=&quot;/en/glossary/term/275&quot;&gt;&lt;acronym title=&quot;multi-stakeholder: A very broad term that describes groupings of civil society, the private sector, the public sector, the media and other stakeholders that come together for a common purpose. It is often used with words like &amp;quot;partnership&amp;quot; and &amp;quot;consultation&amp;quot;. In multi-stakeholder partnerships the partners have a shared
understanding that they play different roles and have different purposes, but that they can pursue
collective goals through collaboration and common activities to achieve such goals. These partnerships
are voluntary, with participation driven by the perceived benefits they may see emerging from the process. Such partnerships are increasingly being used to challenge and lobby for change in policy processes.

Style information: APC uses multi-stakeholder with a hyphen between &amp;quot;multi&amp;quot; and &amp;quot;stakeholder&amp;quot;.

In the APC context, this means using and developing information and communication technologies in ways that will help sustain human development and ensure progressive communications in the long run. Drawing from lessons learned in other development sectors, sustainability in work with ICTs involves a combination of factors including, among others, clear objectives, institutional frameworks, local capacity and development benefits.
