NPOC is co-organizing a panel session at the Internet Governance Forum (IGF) in 
Baku, Azerbaijan

Side session at the Internet Governance Forum 
(IGF)<http://www.intgovforum.org/cms/component/content/article/114-preparatory-process/927-igf-2012>,
 Baku, Azerbaijan

Friday 9th, November 2012.

09:00 a.m. - 10:30 a.m.

Conference Room 8. IGF venue.

"Why is the participation of the social sector in the Internet Governance 
important for everybody?"

Description:
There is an ongoing tension around the multi-sectored approach to Internet 
Governance as practiced by ICANN and affirmed by the WSIS process in Tunis. One 
of the main questions is if the social sector should be included in Internet 
Governance at all; and if so to what extent.

The panelists will seek to provide answers to this question not only from the 
civil society sector perspective, but also
from the private and governmental sector perspectives. The panel will 
inevitably explore other questions such as; Are there insurmountable 
differences in the different sectors approach to Internet Governance? or Can 
Internet Governance only function well if there exists a symbiotic relationship 
between sectors?

The panel discussion will aim to close down the debate with a final proposal on 
how civil society can have improved interaction with other sectors involved and 
more engagement in Internet
Governance processes.

 *   William J. Drake, International Fellow & Lecturer Media Change & 
Innovation Division, Institute of Mass Communication and Media Research,
