Subject: [PICISOC] Pacific IGF 2021 Programme: ideas wanted
?
Hello all, Kia ora koutou,
I'm emailing with an update about plans for a Pacific regional Internet Governance Forum to be held in early September 2021 in Fiji (travel restrictions allowed) and online.
The event is being organised in association with the APtLD meeting to be held then. A small coordinating committee (of which I am a part, on behalf of InternetNZ!) has been tasked with drafting a programme for the event, and so we are seeking input and ideas to shape the event.
We are looking for things like: topics to be discussed, training people would like to see offered, any offers to speak/facilitate. We want the event to include and address the Internet issues that really matter to the Pacific and you can help that happen!
We have set up a form which is open until 15 January 2021 for people to offer their thoughts- or feel free to email and discuss.

More details about the event, planned fellowships and logistical arrangements are being worked through and will be coming out in early 2021. But for now if you have thoughts on the programme, we'd appreciate them!
Wishing you all a happy holiday season and a 2021 that is a bit less trying than 2020 has been for many!
Ng? mihi nui
Ellen
