At-Large In Full Force at Internet Governance Forum
Demonstrating the power of the multistakeholder model to rally individual Internet users, nearly 30 members of ICANN's At-Large Community are participating in the Internet Governance Forum (IGF) in Baku, Azerbaijan from 6-9 November 2012.
The African Regional At-Large Organization (AFRALO) and the Asia, Australasia and Pacific Islands Regional At-Large Organization (APRALO) worked with ICANN to put together sessions examining aspects of ICANN's New gTLD Program--New gTLD Program: An Opportunity for Development or a Means for More Digital Divide?
At-Large Advisory Committee Chair Dr. Olivier Crépin-Leblond said, "Through their active participation in the IGF in the organization of workshops and other activities, the members of the ICANN At-Large community will be working to ensure that the voice of the end-user within ICANN is heard in this important venue. This will help to show the successful multistakeholder model within ICANN."
