SUMMARY:Sustainable Internet Governance & the Right to Development
DESCRIPTION:IGF 2020 Sustainable Internet Governance & the Right to Development\nThis meeting continues groundbreaking work drawing links between environmental sustainability and human rights. Its focus is Article 4 of the Charter of Human Rights and Principles for the Internet in light of the urgent need to identify and rectify the adverse environmental impacts of internet technologies. This meeting will contribute to emerging action plans to ensure that environmental sustainability and the full realization of human rights are cornerstones of internet governance. \nInternet-connected technologies play a vital role in helping to achieve full realisation of human rights. All around the world emerging technologies are contributing to the effort of eradicating poverty\, hunger\, and diseases and promoting gender equality and empowerment of women and youth. Digital technologies are also increasingly central to our current efforts to find solutions to the climate crisis and to promote environmental protection. However in this still highly digitally divided world we live in\, the drive for digital overconsumption is creating unprecedented levels of e-waste\, a burden that affects mostly developing countries with the huge environmental cost\, and the consequent exposure of entire populations to serious health conditions. \nThis year the IRPC meeting will be looking into Article 4 of the Charter of Human Rights and Principles for the Internet  – Right to Development Through the Internet to address how human development and environmental sustainability can be achieved through the Internet\, and will work with representatives from all stakeholder groups to identify the adverse environmental impact of Internet-connected technologies and to help developing solutions to ensure the full realisation of human rights in the online environment. \nMeeting Format\nOpening Remarks and brief introduction to the Internet Rights and Principles Coalition\nMinda Moreira\, co-Chair IRPC \nPresentations from invited SpeakersQ&A from participants\, discussion\, closing remarks \nObjectives of this session:\n\nAddress the major issues arising from the rapid growth of the ICT industry and digital overconsumption in view of the human rights directly affected by resulting environmental hazards\nConsider further the specific impacts on human and sustainable development goals as these intersect with “greening the internet” policymaking.\nBring together representatives of all sectors committed to work on the urgently needed solutions to ensure that next generation of internet-connected technologies enable human development and a sustainable environment for full realisation of human rights.\n\nPolicy questions that this meeting will address include:\n\nHow does the environmental impact of internet-connected technologies affect human rights especially the right to development?\nAs the UN SDGs look to “connect the next billion”\, how can internet policymakers\, designers\, and citizens better respond to the environmental issues arising from the growing energy demands\, manufacturing\, consumption and disposal of internet-connected technologies?\nIn which specific areas can different stakeholders cooperate more closely to work towards environmentally sustainable and human rights-respecting internet futures?\n\nThis session follows up to Coalition’s annual meetings organised at IGF2018 in Paris and IGF2019 in Berlin\, as well the 2019 EuroDIG in The Hague\, and Plenary 4 from the EuroDIG 2020. It is part of the IRPC’s ongoing outreach and dissemination work based on the Charter of Human Rights and Principles for the Internet.

SUMMARY:NGI @ IGF2020
DESCRIPTION:Trustworthy internet technologies against COVID-19\nTechnology has played a key role in the COVID-19 global health crisis outbreak and it will play an even more important role in supporting countries and citizens to overcome the crisis. This session will look at how effective technology-based measures have been in tackling the spread of the virus; how they have ensured the respect of laws and fundamental rights; and what lessons can be learned for the development of trustworthy internet technologies and their use for public policy purposes. \nThe public health crisis caused by the COVID-19 pandemic created an unprecedented global challenge to health care systems and our way of life. Digital technologies have played an important role since the beginning of the crisis outbreak and they will play an even more important role in supporting countries and citizens to manage and overcome the crisis. In response to this emergency outbreak\, the European Commission has taken a series of initiatives to coordinate a common European approach for the use of mobile applications and mobile data in the context of the coronavirus crisis. The European Commission adopted a Recommendation to support Member States in exiting the COVID-19 crisis and supported European Member States in preparing and implementing a common European Toolbox for the use of mobile applications for contact tracing and warning. These instruments were flexible and agile enough to allow the European Union to promptly react and adapt its response to the emergency. Starting from the COVID-19 crisis experience\, this open forum aims at discussing how technologies can play a role in a global health crisis and yet continue to respect human rights and enact principles and values such as privacy\, trust\, openness\, transparency\, decentralisation\, user control and inclusiveness. The session will look at how effective technology-based measures taken in different countries and regions in the world have been in tackling the spread of the virus; how they have ensured the respect of laws and fundamental rights; and what lessons can be learned for the development of trustworthy internet technologies and their use for public policy purposes. The European Commission has also funded several projects developing technologies and apps to fight the COVID-19 outbreak\, notably in the context of the Next Generation Internet (NGI) programme. The open forum will be the occasion to present to the audience concrete projects and to reflect on lessons learnt and way forward. \nModerators:\n\nMonique Calisti\, CEO and Head of Martel Media and Consulting\, NGI Outreach Office Director\nEsteve Sanz\, European Commission\n\nSpeakers:\n\nGemma Carolillo\, Deputy Head of Unit\, Next-Generation Internet\, DG CNECT\nDirk-Willem van Gulik\, Special advisor to NL government for COVID-19 tracing apps\nJelena Malinina\, Digital health\, policy officer at  BEUC\, the European consumer organisation\nHong-Wei Jyan\, Director General\, Department of Cyber Security of Taiwan\, responsible for the development of the apps on COVID-19
