The NGI Evangelists Programme proudly introduces its third batch of inspiring individuals, following the impactful paths set by our previous evangelists. This group of leaders will drive our mission to foster a more human-centred and privacy-conscious internet, making essential connections across the NGI Community. The NGI Evangelists Programme is committed to two core goals:
– To bridge the gap between our Community and a select group of specialists, creating an inspiring environment for idea exchange and growth.
– To transform this space into a comprehensive hub where anyone can find information, resources, and a sense of belonging for those committed to fostering a more human-centred internet.
