Join IGF2020 Outreach Event at WSIS Forum: August 3, 2020

[YCIG]

Dear YCIG Community:

We would like to cordially invite you to sign up for the IGF2020 Outreach Event at WSIS Forum, organised by the IGF Secretariat.

This session will outline the benefits of active participation at the 15th annual IGF meeting and beyond in future IGF processes. It will explain the concept of the best practice forums (BPFs), dynamic coalitions (DCs) and national, regional and youth IGF initiatives (NRIs). Finally, the MAG 2021 Renewal will be brought to the participant's attention, as well as the future host Governments of the IGF.

Given that the IGF is almost halfway through its second 10-year mandate, the panelists will reflect on what has been achieved in the past five years regarding the IGF's mandated objectives.
