Feb. 26, 2018

This GIJT conference is just one step in a multiyear *transnational multistakeholder process <https://www.internetjurisdiction.net/news/towards-solutions-the-methodology…>.* Vint wrote a very concise advance framing of the issues for the Financial Times last week - *Rebuild internet governance before it is too late <https://www.ft.com/content/e1e6d1e0-156c-11e8-9c33-02f893d608c2> *(I bet some sub, not Vint, made up that headline!). Just yesterday the Washington Post announced that the Microsoft Ireland digital privacy case *will go to the supreme court* <https://www.washingtonpost.com/world/national-security/supreme-court-case-c…> (let us note the case originated in the Southern District of New York!). And then, the *GDPR* <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/General_Data_Protection_Regulation> looms. The webcast is just Monday afternoon and Wednesday morning. <https://livestream.com/internetsociety/netneutrality18/edit> [image: YouTube] <https://www.youtube.com/user/InternetJurisdiction/live>This week, *Monday-Wednesday February 26-28 2018*, the *Internet & Jurisdiction Policy Network <https://www.internetjurisdiction.net/>* and the *Government of Canada <https://www.canada.ca/>* host the 2nd *Global Internet and Jurisdiction Conference <https://conference.internetjurisdiction.net/>* in Ottawa, Canada. Representatives from a wide range of stakeholder groups will address one of the great global governance challenges of today: how to manage the coexistence of national laws on the internet and, at the same time, work toward the development of policy standards and operational solutions to fight abuses, protect human rights, and enable the global digital economy. Speakers: *Kathy Brown*, President & CEO, Internet Society, *Vint Cerf*, Co-Founder, Internet Society, *Nii Quaynor*, Internet Hall of Fame, *Rebecca MacKinnon*, Director of Ranking Digital Rights, New America Foundation, *Anriette Esterhuysen*, Director of Policy and Strategy, Association for Progressive Communications; *Joseph Cannataci*, UN Special Rapporteur on the Right to Privacy, plus senior representatives of many countries and corporations.

WEBCAST TODAY: Internet Society Webinar – GDPR: Novelties, Challenges and Opportunities
by Joly MacFie Feb. 22, 2018

Feb. 22, 2018

This is a webcast of the webinar that took place earlier today, with added real time text captioning. Please be tolerant if our captioner may at times struggle with the accents! Unlike the EURALO effort on Monday <http://isoc-ny.org/p2/9918> which focused on practical implementation, today's Internet Society's Europe Bureau discussion took a wider view of the new law's novelties, challenges and opportunities.. <https://livestream.com/internetsociety/netneutrality18/edit> [image: Livestream] <https://livestream.com/internetsociety/isocgdpr>Today, *Thursday February 22 2018* at *1pm ET* (18:00 UTC) the *Internet Society Livestream Channe*l <https://livestream.com/internetsociety/isocgdpr/> presents a webcast of *Internet Society Webinar: GDPR: Novelties, Challenges and Opportunities <https://www.internetsociety.org/events/gdpr-webinar/>* earlier today. The EU *General Data Protection Regulation* <https://www.eugdpr.org/> (GDPR) which is going to enter into force on *25 May 2018* will bring fundamental changes to the Privacy and Data Protection scene on a global level. GDPR aims to harmonize data privacy laws across Europe, to protect and empower data privacy of EU citizens and to reshape the way organizations across the region approach data privacy. The expected global impact of GDPR has triggered a worldwide discussion and many organizations both within and outside the EU are currently busy getting ready for 25 May, to make sure they are in compliance with the GDPR, while there is still an ongoing debate on many provisions. This Internet Society webinar provided our community with a better understanding of the big picture when it comes to GDPR, its global impact, novelties, challenges and opportunities. Speakers: *Bojana Bellamy*, President, Centre for Information Policy Leadership; *Prof. Joe Cannataci*, UN Special Rapporteur on the right to privacy; *Olivier Iteanu*, Founder and Managing Partner, Iteanu Avocats; *Nevena Ruzic*, Assistant Secretary General at Information Commissioner Serbia. Moderator: *Ceren Unal*, Internet Society European Regional Bureau.
