<p><span style="font-family: 'trebuchet ms', geneva; font-size:
10pt;">Dear Olivier,</span><o:p></o:p></p>
<p><span style="font-family: 'trebuchet ms', geneva; font-size:
10pt;">The past year has been rich in developments around the
governance of the Internet. But 2015 looks set to be the year
when the way the Internet is governed changes radically,
forever.</span><o:p></o:p></p>
<p><span style="font-family: 'trebuchet ms', geneva; font-size:
10pt;">Over the past couple of years, as the Internet has
grown to reach a diverse user population of 3 billion people
across the globe, and in the wake of the WikiLeaks and NSA
revelations, there has been a heightened realization by the
general public and the powers that be of the political
importance of the Internet, and how it affects every single
one of us, our economies and our societies.</span><o:p></o:p></p>
<p><span style="font-family: 'trebuchet ms', geneva; font-size:
10pt;">One of the fruits of this deepening debate has been a
positive effort: the ‘Net Mundial’ conference led by Brazilian
President Roussef, which gathered thousands of representatives
of governments, civil society, businesses and the technical
community in April this year. The conference agreed, through
‘rough consensus’, a “declaration of Internet principles” and
a “roadmap for the evolution of Internet Governance”. This
evolution straddles areas from cybersecurity to the future of
the Internet Governance Forum, to privacy and access to
knowledge.</span><o:p></o:p></p>
<p><span style="font-family: 'trebuchet ms', geneva; font-size:
10pt;">Among the main topics of discussion at NetMundial,
there was much talk about the so-called ‘IANA stewardship
transition’. Marking a historical development for a technology
that was born in the United States as part of an academic
effort funded by the government, the US administration took
the initiative in March this year by announcing its readiness
to transition its oversight of the core domain name system
functions performed by the Internet Assigned Numbers Authority
(IANA), to the ‘global stakeholder community’. After further
discussions during the ICANN Meeting in London late June, a
coordination group is now in place to take forward this
transition and shape how the oversight of the Internet (the
domain name system, IETF and RIRs) might look like without
direct US Government ‘backstop’.</span><o:p></o:p></p>
<p><span style="font-family: 'trebuchet ms', geneva; font-size:
10pt;">Together with the upcoming ITU Plenipotentiary
Conference, and the 2015 year review of the UN World Summit on
the Information Society, this makes for an interesting year
ahead. What will the map of Internet Governance look like in a
couple of years’ time? Where and how will global issues of
Internet policy be discussed, from new domain names to net
neutrality and other online freedoms? What is ‘the global
multi-stakeholder community’ and how should it oversee the
basic governance structures for the Internet? What is the UK’s
role and place in this evolution? We will aim to answer some
of these questions with a prominent panel of experts,
moderated by Professor Robin Mansell of the LSE.</span><o:p></o:p></p>
