Youth report from ICANN83
Hi everyone, I brought a young person with me to the meeting, because I think we need fresh input from the generation, which will suffer from our decisions. The document is attached (local language and English). Such a report is expected for each of the - possibly - further invitations of young people. In my mind, I'd like to reach out the schools in the conference town about two months before each meeting and ask for about 15-20 pupils with reasonable knowledge in English as well as interest in politics. It's important to broaden the audience to cover more than the academics, but reach the "ordinary" people. They have a quite different view: Please notice the introduction, where the common sense of "Internet" is defined by "wifi and social media". It might be concerning that the large content providers are dominating the Internet, so that all your discussion points might become irrelevant, if they choose to switch to a different underlying technology ... Greeting from Germany Lutz PS: I'll come up with a more concrete proposal, how to do this out/inreach.
