LATVIA: Internet Governance
The Internet and the post-WSIS environment: enhancing dialogue among the stakeholders
The seminar ?The Internet and the post-WSIS environment: enhancing dialogue among the stakeholders?, co-organized by the Secretariat of the Special Assignments Minister for Electronic Government Affairs of the Republic of Latvia and the Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers (ICANN), and supported by the Finnish Presidency of the European Union, took place in Riga on October 4th, 2006.
The seminar aimed at bringing together representatives of different stakeholder groups from countries active in the global debate on Internet Governance related issues with countries which have been ?quasi-absent? from this debate in order to compare perspectives on the issue. In total over 100 participants, from more than 20 countries around the Baltic Sea and Eastern Europe. The key objective of the seminar was to exchange views on ICANN related matters: IANA services for ccTLD operators, WHOIS, IDN, migration form IPv4 to IPv6 and network security as well as to encourage Eastern European countries to consider participation in relevant ICANN supporting organizations and advisory committees, including the Governmental Advisory Committee (GAC).
