By Lillian Nalwoga - IGF

I-Network is one of the organisations that participates and organiseses the Internet Governance Forum in Uganda. Following on last year’s Internet Governance Forums in several East African Countries including Uganda, this is to announce the start of this year’s discussions on Internet Governance (IG) in Uganda. The main objective last year was to raise awareness, update stakeholders on the issues under debated at the international stage, and gather views on what the priority issues for Uganda were.
This year, IG discussions seek to focus on consolidating the understanding of the issues and to state positions that may have been previously ambiguously defined.

The intention is to run for three weeks, and the outcome of this will feed into a report that will form the basis of the national face-to-face meeting to be held in July or August, 2009. 

You can participate in these discussion by posting your comments on this issue on our blog or by sending in your contribution via our mailing list.
