Act I • Background & Scope

Project Context & Strategic Challenge

As the World Summit on the Information Society (WSIS+20) review approaches, global debates surrounding the multistakeholder Internet governance model vs. centralized multilateral frameworks have intensified. Civil society and local community leaders often lack accessible, jargon-free materials to meaningfully participate in these high-level policy discussions.

Complex governance terminology and technical jargon create significant barriers for grassroots leaders, educators, and end-users, risking the marginalization of civil society voices in critical global Internet policy decisions.

Core Objective 1 Strategic Goal

Translate intricate Internet governance frameworks into accessible, plain-language explainer resources.

Core Objective 2 Strategic Goal

Lead and coordinate a diverse, volunteer-driven global team of content contributors.

Core Objective 3 Strategic Goal

Produce ready-to-deploy advocacy materials, talking points, and visual inputs for global community leaders.
