Invitation - NDI event on Democratizing the Politics that Shape Internet Governance Norms and Standards

[Ayden Férdeline]

Dear all,

I have recently written a whitepaper for the National Democratic Institute that explores the role that the development and philanthropic communities, among other stakeholders, can play in elevating the voices of civil society in internet governance policy and coordination fora. We are hosting a virtual launch event next Wednesday, May 25 at 10am EDT / 2pm UTC if you are able to join us. Some details are below. Thank you and hope you can join us!

Kind regards,
Ayden Férdeline
