by Rookayya G April 14, 2025

April 14, 2025

Hi All, I wanted to share an insightful resource on the WSIS process and its evolution over the past two decades. The APC policy explainer offers a clear overview of WSIS+20, shedding light on its impact, ongoing relevance, and future challenges in shaping global digital policies. It's a great read for anyone interested in digital rights, governance, and international collaboration in the digital space. Check it out here: https://www.apc.org/en/pubs/apc-policy-explainer-wsis20-process Best regards, *Bibi Rookayya Gulmahamed* NARALO ALS Member - ISOC Québec (Canada) ICANN NA-CAT member Youth IGF Canada Executive Member

I am the President of Youth IGF Canada which Rookayya recently joined our volunteer Executive Committee, which is our key coordinating arm for our nonprofit.

Rookayya was one of Youth IGF Canada’s selected funded travellers when we held Canada’s inaugural Youth Internet Governance Forum in Toronto last September. Since then, Rookayya joined the Youth IGF Canada Executive Committee in February, demonstrating her commitment to building out the next generation of Internet leaders in Canada. She has been a wonderful addition to our team demonstrating attention to detail, agility, and collegiality on our various files.
