One week left to apply for CEU’s summer institute on internet governance, civil 
society and communication policy advocacy

Our 2015 summer institute will take place from 28 June to 4 July at Central 
European University in Budapest. Application deadline is 15 March.

Workshops will explore how activists are campaigning for an open internet, 
freedom of expression norms in different contexts around the world, the current 
state of play surrounding internet governance, and the potential of technology 
and online tools for mobilizing and organizing constituencies and for enhancing 
the security and privacy of advocates. This year, special attention will be 
paid to the relationship between the policies of internet companies, violent 
extremism, surveillance, filtering, and content take down requests by 
governments.

Organized by the Center for Media, Data and Society at the School of Public 
Policy, Central European University <http://cmds.ceu.edu/> with the Center for 
Global Communication Studies <http://www.global.asc.upenn.edu/> (CGCS), 
Annenberg School, University of Pennsylvania, the week-long intensive is 
designed to help researchers, activists, policy makers, lawyers and advocates 
gain new insights into the complex relationship between technology, free 
expression, and policy that lie at the heart of debates between global security 
and human rights.

Past faculty have come from: Witness, Human Rights Watch, OSCE, Privacy 
International, Center for Democracy and Technology, Open Society Foundation, 
Tactical Technology Collective, Global Voices Online, Center for Internet and 
Society, Hivos, International Center for Policy Advocacy, Internews, Creative
