[EURO-Discuss] MAPPING event arround Internet Governance, Privacy and IPR

[Bogdan Manolea /ApTI]

Hi all,

We are involved with ApTI in am EU project that just started, called 
MAPPING which aims to discuss issues related to three areas - IPR, 
Privacy and Internet Governance.

The first public event will be held in Rome, on 20-21 May 2014 and  will 
be structured as a forum for informed discussion.

It will be opened by a session on “On-line mass surveillance, security 
and privacy: is an international treaty the only way forward?”

After this session, there will be three half-day thematic sessions aimed 
at mapping the emerging and most contentious issues in the three areas 
of Internet Governance, Privacy and Intellectual property rights with a 
focus on discussing viable pathways for remedies and solutions. Each 
session will feature a facilitated discussion among the participants, 
introduced by one or more key-note speeches.

We've insisted that the civil society be active in these sessions, as 
one of the key stakeholders on all these aspects, so now they have also 
asked me to help them with some names.

So - would you be interested to participate drop me and email off-list 
and I'll send you more details and a formal invitation.

The organisers told me that they could potentially also cover the 
expenses for a few participants from the civil society, so let me know 
if you are interested in that and we'll see what we can do

Best regards
