SUMMARY:IGF21 | Open Forum #67 Access to the Open Internet
DESCRIPTION:IGF 2021 Open Forum #67 Access to the Open Internet: benefits\, challenges and policy approaches\nIGF 2021 MAIN FOCUS: Universal access and meaningful connectivity \nPractical locally-driven policy solutions: What lessons can be drawn (and how) from successful policy solutions to universal access and meaningful connectivity around the world\, while taking into account local specificities and needs? In particular\, what are the relevant practices implemented by local actors (local government\, civil society\, local providers and entrepreneurs) to advance universal and meaningful access? \nKey questions\nAccess to the Open Internet\, not only telecom connectivity\, is a key challenge to ensure meaningful connectivity and bridge the digital divide. Why does access to the Open Internet matter\, what are the challenges operators\, governments\, and end-users face in rolling out and accessing the Open Internet\, and how to overcome them? What infrastructures and technologies do we need to boost access to the Open Internet? What are the policy approaches and digital cooperation mechanisms to promote the Open Internet globally? \nOverview of the issue\nAllowing access to the Open Internet and the vast array of online services and information it provides should be a central\, inherent component in the global efforts to provide meaningful connectivity to all and bridge the digital divide. The Open Internet is a key driver for innovation\, socio-political\, economic\, and cultural development. It enables people in multiple ways: knowledge- and ideas- sharing\, skills development\, research and innovation\, entrepreneurship\, expression of opinions\, interaction with governments\, participation in societal and political debates\, etc. Trustworthy data flows based on the Open Internet empower small and medium-sized enterprises to enter value chains\, develop new services\, contributing to job and GDP growth. In particular\, ensuring full access to the Open Internet is a real opportunity for developing countries to deliver the above benefits to their citizens in a cost-efficient manner while protecting human rights and fundamental freedoms online. \nOpen Internet deployment faces a number of challenges that might impede fully harvesting the benefits above such as a weaker development of the local Internet ecosystem\, lower connection speeds and service quality\, limited national and international connectivity\, but also government control – including possible internet shutdowns\, loss of privacy and security\, etc. Connectivity policies should then cover the deployment and upgrade of key internet technologies\, standards (e.g. IPv6 for future-proof IP connectivity; QUIC for enhanced data transport\, etc.) and infrastructures (e.g. international connectivity\, Internet Exchange Points\, data centers)\, and provide regulatory support towards building dynamic\, trustful and democratic local Internet ecosystems that can guarantee secure and stable access to the Open Internet. The forum will take stock of current initiatives to develop access to the Open Internet and reflect how effective partnerships between governments\, industry\, and civil society can help developing countries develop Open Internet connectivity for the benefit of all their citizens. \nApproach\nThe sessions will be organised around several interventions from various stakeholders from the public and private sector and from civil society\, from different geographic regions including developing countries and countries providing foreign aid in the digital sector. It will give ample space for interaction with the participants\, in order to provide a broad perspective on the issue and stimulate the discussion. It will aim to explore the above-mentioned challenges and trigger reflection and constructive approach on how to improve access to the Open Internet as a means for digital development and safe\, prosper and inclusive digital societies. \n\nHow will you design the session to ensure the best possible experience for the online and on-site participants? The sessions will be organised in a way that allows interventions both online (chat and Q&A pods) and on-site. The answers would be provided to the full (online and onsite) audience attending the session. We are also in the process of contacting our internal experts to shape the session in the most valuable way. The EC has vast experience in organising online\, on-site and hybrid meetings.\nIf the speakers and organizers will all be online\, how will you ensure interactions between them and the participants (including with on-site participants)? Given that the session would be hybrid\, there will be at least 1 or 2 panelists/speakers present on-site. In addition\, the approach shaped under 1) would take into consideration this question should COVID-related difficulties persist.\nAre you planning to use complementary tools/platforms to increase participation and interaction during the session? The EC will reach out to all its networks and Delegations around the world to promote the session and ensure high-level participation. We have access to and can implement complementary communication tools as appropriate.\n\nOrganizers\nEuropean Commission \nSpeakers\n\nMr. Yoichi IIDA\, Deputy Director-General for G7 and G20 Relations\, Global Strategy Bureau\, Ministry of Internal Affairs and Communications\, Japan\nMr. Esteve SANZ\, Head of Sector Internet Governance and Multi-stakeholder Dialogue\, European Commission\nMs. Mame Maty TALL\, Representative of Sonatel\nDr. Raquel GATTO\, IGF Secretariat Consultant\, Policy Network on Meaningful Access Facilitator\n\nOnsite Moderator\nDr. Tereza HOREJSOVA\, Director Project and Partnerships\, Diplo/Geneva Internet Platform \nOnline Moderator\nLaura Ferre Sanjuan\, European Commission \nRapporteur\nVelimira Nemiguentcheva-Grau\, European Commission

SUMMARY:eSSIF-Lab webinar
DESCRIPTION:WEBINAR: Find out all about the final eSSIF-Lab “Completing the Framework” Open Call\nJoin eSSIF-Lab’s live webinar and find out everything about the current “Completing the Framework” Open Call. There’s €212K available! \nREGISTER HERE! \nAbout this event\nOver the past years\, the question of how we can protect our identity in the world of online has been getting more heated. The Self-Sovereign Identity paradigm stepped in with the idea itself\, that everyone should be in charge of their own digital personal information\, and that it is the data owner who should decide on how this data is being used and by whom. \nIn addition\, eSSIF-Lab Framework (at GitLab) will be built upon the open-source components provided through its Infrastructure-oriented open call and the generic SSI-based services and applications (being developed with the support of the eSSIF-Lab 1st Business-oriented Programme) and the SSI domain-oriented solutions addressing real-world needs or opportunities (that will be supported by the eSSIF-Lab 2nd Business-oriented Programme). \neSSIF-Lab kicked off one last additional Open Call “Completing the framework”\, on the 15th of November\, lasting until the 15th of January. \nJOIN THE WEBINAR and find out everything about the Open Call! \n\nMore info at https://spaces.fundingbox.com/spaces/ngi-next-generation-internet-ngi-news-events/61b868267cf08f133dbecb9a

SUMMARY:Webinar: Visual Thinking Strategy
DESCRIPTION:Visual Thinking Strategy\nWhen: 25 January 2022 at 16:00 CET\nWhere: Online \nWebinar powered by TETRA and NGI Atlantic.eu \nThe webinar focuses on identifying the product/service Unique Selling Proposition (USP) and work on a concept extracted from it using modalities that are usually not explored (Visual Thinking Strategy). This is the best way to stretch the brain and give birth to new ideas\, free of preconceived notions\, that will be useful in business or elsewhere in life. Thinking visually and spatially helps tackle complex problems by seeing how interdependent pieces fit together. \n \nStrategies for visual learning\nIf you teach as part of a formal institution or in a business training capacity\, you can use the Visual Thinking Strategies (VTS) methodology to encourage flexible thinking with the help of a single\, interesting image and three simple questions: \n\nWhat’s going on in this picture?\nWhat do you see that makes you say that?\nWhat more can we find?\n\nMuch like a brainstorming session\, the goal of a VTS discussion is to enable shared discovery\, learning\, and insight rather than to disseminate knowledge. Encouraging the contribution of individual ideas in this way has been shown to deepen the learner’s observation\, collaboration\, and communication skills in an international setting. \nREGISTER HERE!

SUMMARY:EU Open Source Policy Summit
DESCRIPTION:Join on 4 February 2022 the annual EU Open Source Policy Summit. This conference will happen both in person in Brussels and online. This year’s agenda will be packed with discussions on the most burning digital policy questions and will put open source in a broader European and global technological context. \nMore information and registration will be available soon. For now\, add the event to your calendar. \n2022 will be the eighth year OpenForum Europe hosts its Open Source policy event in the first week of February. What started as a 10-person meeting of minds on the then-niche subject of Open Source policy is now a successful annual gathering of policymakers\, Open Source businesses\, community members\, developers\, foundations and those involved with diverse digital policy subjects. \nThe Summit 2022 is meant to reframe the conversation around Open Source and digital policy at the highest political level. Open Source is one of the most important vehicles to employ when tackling our digital challenges – not just in Europe\, but globally. As shown by the study we conducted for the European Commission\, Open Source software is estimated to contribute between €65 to €95 billion to the European Union’s GDP and promises significant growth opportunities for the region’s digital economy. Ensuring transparency\, accountability\, digital sovereignty\, cybersecurity\, increasing competition in concentrated digital markets\, the provision of cutting-edge digital government services\, or for that matter\, a digital post-COVID economic recovery\, Open Source and the Open Source industry will play an important\, if not pivotal\, role.

SUMMARY:Webinar: How to start using blockchain for innovation and real-world projects
DESCRIPTION:How to start using blockchain for innovation and real-world projects\nWhen: 15 February 2022 at 13:00 CET\nWhere: Online \nThis webinar is powered by TETRA and NGI TRUBLO. \nThere is an ongoing and intensifying hype over crypto coins\, the potential of Web 3.0 approaches and more recently about sales of NFTs. Last year record sums of VC investments went to companies in this field. But\, how can “normal” companies use blockchain? How can a start-up extend towards decentralisation concepts? \nFor answers\, we invited expert Andrius Bartminas\, CEO of Super How?. He has researched blockchain and implemented large scale infrastructure projects for 10 years.
