At the start of March, the global internet community gathered in Mumbai for another ICANN meeting. This time, the focus was on community topics, and the Estonian Internet Foundation was there to take part in the discussions. As expected, the main themes included the next round of generic domains, the WSIS+20 process, and the ongoing challenge of DNS abuse. At the same time, the meeting offered a valuable chance to share experiences and learn from others.

Every year, the Estonian Internet Foundation (EIS) supports projects that help grow and strengthen Estonia’s internet community. Over the years, our funding round has helped launch many initiatives, events, competitions, and educational programs. Now it’s a good moment to look back and see what the projects supported last year achieved.

This time, the focus was on the growing body of European Union legislation that increasingly shapes our daily work — rules we must constantly interpret, analyse, and implement in practice.
