Almost two decades after the initial World Summit on the Information Society (WSIS) and the ‎convening of the IGF, much of digital policy and related processes have changed. Many communities ‎felt inspired by the IGF and started their own national and regional IGFs. Among them, EuroDIG, as the ‎regional IGF for Europe, and the Finnish Internet Forum (FIF), have been running their processes for ‎years.‎

The IGF has been at the centre of the UN Secretary-General’s digital agenda. In his Roadmap for Digital ‎Cooperation, he called for advancing the IGF by introducing the high-level multistakeholder body, ‎recently announced as the IGF Leadership Panel. Calls for changes continue. For example, in the ‎Secretary-General’s Our Common Agenda Report, it is called for the IGF to ‘’adapt, innovate and ‎reform’’ and designing a Global Digital Compact (GDC) was proposed. What are these changes about ‎and what are the areas the GDC will focus on? Would it reflect the contemporary digital policy issues? ‎What does our digital future look like? These questions and more will be discussed during this session.‎

The details of the upcoming meeting of the Dynamic Coalitions Coordination Group (DCCG) are shared via the DCCG mailing list.
