The conference will bring together Internet governance stakeholders to compile community messages that will be presented at the Internet Governance Forum (IGF) in June. The event is hosted by the European Commission and the Committee of Ministers of the Council of Europe in Luxembourg. The theme of this year's EuroDIG is “Safeguarding human rights by balancing regulation and innovation”. Check out the conference programme and register your participation at https://www.eurodig.org/.
The most important industry event of the year - IGF - will take place in Norway from 23 to 27 June. This is the 20th edition of the conference, which is why the focus of several topics is the future of the IGF and its role in shaping Internet governance policies. This is especially true in a difficult geopolitical situation, in order to ensure the resilience, security, and inclusive design of the Internet. It is also possible to participate in the discussions and workshops online. More information and the program can be found here: https://www.igf2025.no/.
