IGF 2017 Remote Hubs


"If you are not able to attend the Twelfth IGF<https://www.intgovforum.org/multilingual/lexicon/8#IGF> meeting in Geneva, Switzerland, you can follow it remotely! Remote participation, and specifically the hubs structure, has been successful in previous IGFs. This time again you can follow the discussions from home or office; watch the webcast of the event; follow real-time closed captioning ; and participate live. Or you can also expand the discussions and organize an IGF hub in your city!

Remote participants/hubs will be able to interact with the meeting by sending text questions and/or video/audio interventions using the remote participation platform. These questions will be forwarded to the panel moderator when s/he opens the floor for questions from the audience......."


How to organize a hub?:

  *   A room or auditorium. It can be held in a university classroom or any other convenient place.
  *   A computer with a broadband Internet connection and a projector equipment, to enable the hub participants to watch the video.
  *   A hub moderator, who will plan the dynamics of the local discussions as well as transmit the hub participants’ questions or comments to the IGF through the remote participation channels.
  *   A general call in lists, forums etc, to invite the interested local community.
