[Npoc-discuss] Dakar Workshop for NGOs on the Governance of the Internet

[Sam Lanfranco]

NPOC Colleagues,

Late in March (March 23^rd ) 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: //

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.
