CSIS, B1 Conference Center
The Center for Strategic and International Studies and the Washington DC Chapter of the Internet Society
Invite you to attend a panel discussion on:
The Geopolitics of Internet Governance
The international landscape calls for a more compelling narrative for internet governance than the US –centric one inherited from the ‘90s. Will it be possible to accommodate non-western state’s (this is much more than China and Russia) desire for a larger role for governments without throwing the multi-stakeholder model and (more importantly) human rights overboard?
Please join us and our distinguised panel for an important discussion about the issues confronting Internet governance.
