Event description

The Geneva Briefing on Internet Governance takes place on the first Tuesday of every month.

[Update] The webinar digest and recording are now available here: Internet governance in November 2014: A bubbling cauldron

You receive hundreds of pieces of information on digital politics. We receive them, too. We decode, contextualise, and analyse them. Then we summarise them for you.

Join us once a month for a round-up of the main IG-related events and developments. Every month, we look back at what happened and look ahead to what’s to come.
