APC response to the Internet Governance Forum Review

JOHANNESBURG 15 Maio 2009 (APC)
“The IGF has embodied the WSIS Principles – that internet governance should be multilateral, transparent and democratic, with the full involvement of governments, the private sector, civil society and international organisations – in its practice as a space for policy dialogue. [...] There are however areas that need improvement. Participation of civil society, and in some cases also of developing country government and private sector stakeholders, is hampered by insufficient financial resources”, said APC in its response to the IGF 2008 review, submitted to the Secretariat.

Foro de gobernanza de internet

El Foro de gobernanza de internet es un espacio de diálogo multisectorial sobre políticas, convocado por el Secretario general de Naciones Unidas en 2006 para “promover la seguridad, solidez, seguridad y desarrollo de internet”. APC considera que el FGI es un foro de políticas experimental e influyente en temas relacionados con nuestra misión de garantizar un acceso abierto, universal y asequible a internet para todo el mundo.
