PNIF Kickoff Webinar

The Policy Network on Internet Fragmentation (PNIF) is kicking off its 2024 activities with a first webinar on 19 June!

Webinar: ‘Avoiding Internet fragmentation. Still a matter of concern in 2024?'

When the PNIF launched in 2022, it was strongly inspired by the UN Secretary General's call to address 'avoiding fragmentation of the Internet' in the Global Digital Compact (GDC). Two years later, with ongoing preparations for the GDC and the upcoming WSIS+20 discussions, the PNIF seeks to evaluate how this call is being followed up and how the PNIF platform and framework can be most effective in fostering holistic and inclusive discussions on fragmentation, thereby reflecting on and contributing to these critical dialogues.

When?  19 June 2024, 1400-1530 UTC.
