HI All,
For those of you not in DC there are three ways to watch the
program and participate. If you can not watch then you can catch
up on the panels later on the Livestream.
The entire event, including three breakout tracks, will be
webcast on the Internet
Society Livestream Channels https://www.igf-usa.org/igf-usa-2106-live-video/
and Facebook
Live. https://www.facebook.com/InternetGovernanceForumUSA/
There will be live captions available. I will send the
stream text links as soon as I have them. They will also be placed
on the video so if you are just watching this link you can see the
or for those with lower bandwidth or with accessibility issues can
just read the stream text. We have streams on both livestream and
facebook, 100% captioning, and remote moderators in every room
ready to grab and voice your #igfusa2016 tweets and fb
comments. We do not have the facility for remote users to
voice their questions but we encourage them to post it on Facebook
comments or messages or post them on twitter at our hashtag at
#igfusa2016
I have also organized a panel on Access to the underserved focusing on the indigenous community, low income, rural-remote users and the disability and special needs community. This will be held at 10:45-12:15pm so come watch and ask questions.
Hope to see many of you there
Judith
