Panel - Auditorium - 60 Min
How can we advance the Netmundial principles (openness, inclusiveness, transparency, human rights) in the current governance structures of the internet?
How those principles can be discussed theoretically/systemically as well as very practically in terms of concrete opportunities stakeholders can organize around?
What best practices and lessons did we learn during the netmundial process that we would like to see/advance today?
How can collaborative governance models improve access to equitable opportunities in the digital age?

Relevance to Theme: In April 2014 São Paulo hosted the Global Multistakeholder Meeting on the Future of Internet Governance (NETmundial), an event that convened a large number of global actors to produce a consensus statement on internet governance principles and a roadmap for the future evolution of the Internet governance ecosystem.
Five years later, debates around internet governance models that could preserve an open, safe and interconnected Internet remain urgent and experiences such as the Netmundial meeting can bring some light into the recent internet policy challenges we are facing.
Relevance to Internet Governance: The Multistakeholder NetMundial conference gathered a large number of global actors and produced a Universal Declaration on Internet Governance Principles and an Internet Governance Roadmap. This Workshop will resume the main debates that took place during the meeting and will follow up on how the Declaration of Principles have been implemented since its adoption in 2014. In addition to that, participants will discuss the lessons learnt from this process and how those lessons can inspire new approaches for internet public policy making.
