Agenda
IGF 2014 sub theme that this workshop fall under Enhancing Digital Trust |
Description Different actors have different responsibilities when it comes to establishing trust in the digital world. In government, trust is what you have, or do not have towards other governments. It is also how well you protect your citizens from threats (both foreign and domestic), and maintain rule of law. Establishing trust in the digital world is a complex task for states because national borders become indistinct. |

Description of how the proposer plan to facilitate discussion amongst speakers, audience members and remote participants This panel is designed to encourage an open dialog and exchange of ideas between the participants. It is envisioned that each of the panelists will provide a brief introductory comment (of 5 minutes), which will then be followed by a question and answer period, engaging audience members, remote attendees and other panelists. The Moderator will ensure that there is equal distribution of time allocated to differing view-points, to ensure a robust discussion and inclusive discourse. Moreover, the panelists have been selected to represent and embody geographic, cultural and gender diversity, as well as the diversity in stakeholder type, with representation from civil society, the private sector, the academy, and government. |
Description of the proposer's plans for remote participation The Centre for International Governance Innovation (CIGI) plans to engage and include remote attendees using a combination of video and social media technologies. This will allow the CIGI IGF panel content to be shared in real time around the world to all those who wish to participate. To keep the workshop lively and accessible to all, remote attendees will be able to chat throughout the workshop with other remote attendees. During the Q&A periods of the workshop, remote attendees will be given an equal opportunity to directly engage with local workshop participants. |
