GIG3

GIG3 refers to the third generation of Global Internet Governance. This concept emerged as a framework to understand the evolving landscape of internet governance, moving beyond earlier models that were often more centralized or narrowly focused. GIG3 envisions a more distributed, multi-stakeholder approach where various actors, including governments, civil society, the private sector, and technical communities, play a role in shaping internet policies and standards. It emphasizes inclusivity and collaboration in addressing complex global issues related to the internet, such as cybersecurity, data privacy, and digital rights. The transition to GIG3 is seen as a response to the internet's increasing pervasiveness and its profound impact on society, requiring a more adaptive and comprehensive governance structure. This evolving model acknowledges the dynamic nature of the internet and the need for ongoing dialogue and cooperation to ensure its continued openness, security, and accessibility for all.
