The Internet Governance Forum (IGF) 2020 will be held online, under the overarching theme ‘Internet for human resilience and solidarity’ with a programme developed around four main thematic tracks: data, environment, inclusion, and trust.
The meeting will have two phases:
- The first phase between 2-6 November will encompass IGF 2020 pre-events, newcomers sessions, thematic introductory sessions, as well as open forums (OFs), national and regional IGFs (NRIs), and dynamic coalition (DC) sessions.
- IGF 2020 will officially start on 9 November, running until 17 November. This second phase will encompass workshops, main sessions, a high-level leader’s track, a parliamentary round-table, and thematic concluding sessions.
The GIP Digital Watch observatory and DiploFoundation will continue the annual practice of publishing just-in-time reports from the IGF sessions during the second phase. The reports will be available on the dedicated space on the observatory as of 9 November.
Along with individual session reports we will provide regular briefs summarising the main highlights with topic analyses. A final report, published right after IGF 2020, will include a thematic summary.
