IGF 2022 PN Meaningful Access: From Policy to Implementation: Lessons and Good Practices to Advance Meaningful Access

The concept of meaningful access has emerged in response to the growing body of evidence that even when people have connectivity, they might not have been fully benefiting from the Internet. How one gets connected to the Internet is an equally important challenge to the experience that person will have once they are online.

IGF 2022 BPF Gender & Digital Rights: Regulatory Practices - A Friend or Foe to Gender and Digital Rights?

Human rights must be observed in all aspects of one’s life – personal and professional, online and offline. On the Internet, both female and LGBTQIA+ communities have found safe spaces to freely express themselves. Similarly, journalists and human rights activists were able to exercise their right to freedom of expression without being targeted as if they were using traditional media. Notwithstanding, censorship based on sex and gender still happen, persecution of dissident voices, likewise.

Portugal IGF

The 9th edition of the Portugal IGF will take place on 3 November 2022 at the PT headquarters in the Barra Barra building in Lisbon. This year's overarching theme is, 'All connected. A secure, resilient and sustainable internet’. The programme will focus on connectivity and the protection of human rights; on trust, security and sustainability; in emerging technologies, such as artificial intelligence, and in the future that is expected for the Portuguese language in the digital age. The event is organized by PT, ANACOM, the National Cybersecurity Center, DECO, the Foundation for Science and Technology, and the Internet Management Committee in Brazil, with the objective of analysing and sharing the different ideas about how the internet should be managed and used.
