NETmundial+10 will be held on April 29 and 30, 2024, at the Grand Hyatt Hotel, in São Paulo, Brazil, a global multistakeholder forum for a high-level debate on the global challenges surrounding the issue of digital world governance.
Context
The initiative for NETmundial+10, which takes place ten years after NETmundial, will be a unique opportunity for the national and international community to discuss how to improve governance processes in a context of accelerated digitalization and the rise of new technologies. Entering a critical phase in global discussions regarding the future governance of the digital world, the Brazilian Internet Steering Committee (CGI.br), along partner organizations and individuals from diverse stakeholder groups and geographic origins, brought together the NETmundial+10, a second global multistakeholder meeting on the future of Internet governance, building upon the first NETmundial meeting, held in Brazil in 2014. Ten years ago, the multistakeholder community convened and issued consensus- based principles and a roadmap for a free, open, safe, and more inclusive Internet. Instead of being a revival or a celebration of the first one, this new meeting will address how to improve our governance processes to cope with issues arising from the accelerating pace of digitalization and disruptive technologies. Rather than discussing the details of specific policy issues, the focus of the event will be on bolstering the governance architecture, bringing together key stakeholders to deliver concrete recommendations on how to strengthen the multistakeholder approach as the basis for consensus-building and democratic governance, including in existing multilateral and other relevant decisional fora.[1]
