How can we work together, as the Internet Society community, for an<br>
open, globally-connected, secure and trustworthy Internet for<br>
everyone?<br>
<br>
To answer that question, we published our 2019 Action Plan today,<br>
which the Internet Society Board of Trustees has just approved at its<br>
meeting in Bangkok. It is how we will focus and organize our work<br>
through 2019 and beyond.<br>
<br>
Please read and share the plan:<br>

<br>
This 2019 Action Plan builds on what we did in 2018 and applies the<br>
lessons we learned. First, this plan makes a distinction between what<br>
we do and how we do it. Second, it refines the campaign-led approach,<br>
which helped break down internal barriers, by defining the criteria<br>
for success or completion. Finally, this plan contemplates some<br>
changes to the organization of the Internet Society to address<br>
functional gaps that became clear in 2018.<br>
<br>
We believe an open, globally-connected, secure, and trustworthy<br>
Internet makes a positive difference in the lives of people<br>
everywhere. More than 3.5 billion people around the world enjoy the<br>
benefits of the Internet, but a nearly equal number remain<br>
unconnected. Our work is to connect the unconnected to bring people<br>
opportunity and to develop human potential. At the same time, we must<br>
ensure that the Internet to which they connect is a network they can<br>
trust and where their activity is secure. This plan serves as our<br>
roadmap for our work in the year ahead to close this gap between the<br>
world of today and our vision for the future.<br>
<br>
As you will read in the plan, part of that roadmap involves the<br>
planned launch of the Internet Society Foundation during the first<br>
quarter of 2019. This represents an exciting new opportunity for the<br>
Internet Society. It will enable us to further our mission and expand<br>
our community and our impact around the world. We will share more<br>
detailed information on the Foundation in the coming months<br>
<br>
With our vision of the Internet under threat, we have a great amount<br>
of work to do. There are many forces challenging our view of the<br>
future of the Internet. I ask you to read this plan, share it with<br>
others, and join with me and the rest of the Internet Society<br>
community to take action to shape the future of the Internet.<br>
<br>
Best regards,<br>
<br>
