APRALO Policy Forum Fireside Chat: "Let's Talk About Internet Fragmentation"
on Thursday, 07 December 2023
at 06:00 UTC for 60 minutes, where
Justine Chew, APRALO Policy Forum, will be chatting
with her guest, Jia-Rong Low, ICANN Vice President, Stakeholder Engagement and Managing Director - Asia Pacific. Join us to learn about how Internet
Fragmentation impacts us as Internet end-users, and share your points of view on this topic with us then.
Internet Fragmentation continues to be a significant concern within Internet Governance spaces and a hot topic of discourse around the world.
In Oct 2023, the Internet Governance community turned up in force in Japan for IGF 2023 Kyoto hosted by the United Nations, to discuss the topic through one of 8 themes: "Avoiding Internet Fragmentation."
Digwatch, wrote in its report on IGF 2023, that, "Internet
fragmentation would pose significant challenges to the global and interconnected nature of the internet. It would hinder communication, stifle innovation, and undermine the intended functioning of the internet", citing geopolitical tensions, misinformation,
and digital protectionism as escalating threats pressuring the reshaping internet governance, potentially compromising the openness of the Internet.
