NPOC Colleagues, Late in March (March 23rd) in Dakar, Senegal, NPOC carried out a workshop for Senegalese NGOs. The workshop was funded by ICANN’s CROPP Program.
The Title of the Workshop was*: **Workshop for NGOs on the Governance of the Internet*.
The Workshop was presented by Poncelet Illeleji, from Gambia and Chair of the NPOC Policy Committee, and by Prof. Sam Lanfranco, from Canada and a constituency member of NPOC.
A formal Workshop report is forthcoming. This is my (Sam Lanfranco) effort to share part of the workshop content with you. My presentation is available as a slide show (French cover page, content in English) at:
*http://www.slideshare.net/slanfranco/ngo-citizenship-in-the-internet-ecosyst... <http://www.slideshare.net/slanfranco/ngo-citizenship-in-the-internet-ecosystem-websites-vs-social-media>*
My presentation focused on four main areas.
- The meaning of NGO residency and citizenship in the Internet Ecosystem - The issues surrounding NGO uses of social media and/or Websites and Domain Names - A 4-step strategy for NGO ownership and use of a domain name space on the Internet. - The growing important of NGO engagement in Internet Governance
This was followed by Poncelet’s focus on NGO engagement in the policy and program activities of ICANN.
