The Government of Norway will host the 20th annual Internet Governance Forum (IGF) in Lillestrøm from 23 to 27 June 2025.
‘Norway is committed to ensuring an open, safe, and free Internet for all. In an era where some countries seek to restrict online freedoms, it is more vital than ever for nations like Norway to engage in the discussions and negotiations regarding the frameworks that govern the Internet. As host country for IGF 2025, the international community trusts Norway to bring together global stakeholders for crucial conversations about the future role of the Internet,’ Karianne Tung, Minister of Digitalisation and Public Governance, stated.
‘A free and open Internet is fundamental to democracy, human rights, and freedom of expression. International cooperation to ensure the Internet remains a safe and inclusive space for everyone, is more crucial than ever. Norway wants to contribute to this effort,’ stated Foreign Minister Espen Barth Eide.
