Youth in Digital Society: Facing the Challenge of Access and Improving Internet Governance

Tunis, Tunisia

On Wednesday, 20 April 2016, the Humanist Institute for Cooperation with Developing Countries (HIVOS) will organize an event in partnership with the Internet Society Chapter in Tunisia (ISOC) on the topic of 'Youth in Digital Society: Facing the Challenge of Access and Improving Internet Governance'.

The event will bring together various groups of Internet users, including policymakers, experts, operators, Internet advocates, IT companies, researchers, media professionals, teachers, students, and other interested individuals to ask questions and debate important policy issues relating to the Internet in Tunisia, and to engage with young people’s knowledge and experience.

The discussion will explore new policy solutions and encourage fresh ideas. The session will be facilitated by the Internet Governance in the Middle East and North Africa (IGMENA) community in Tunisia. Two main thematic panels will tackle the issues of Infrastructure and Internet Access, and Internet Governance and Human Rights.
