Dear Organization Members,
As you know, following the consensus adoption of the Global Digital Compact on 22 September 2024, the Office for Digital and Emerging Technologies (ODET, formerly OSET) announced that the GDC is open to all stakeholders for endorsement to engage in the realization of an open, safe, and secure digital future for all, and has shared the endorsement list as of 31 December 2024.
After careful consideration, the Internet Society has decided not to endorse the GDC and provided details of our intended plans here. 👈
If you are considering the endorsement opportunity, or have any questions, we encourage you to reach out to Mona Gaballa and/or Isra Rosas, who are cc’d here.
We look forward to hearing back from you about your position on the GDC endorsement.
All the best,
Cara
Cara Unterkofler, Sr Director of Organization Members
