‘How the Internet is transforming Australian society’
The auIGF is the one event a year where individuals, community groups, industry leaders, government representatives, academics, students, media – all Internet users – gather to discuss Internet-related issues in Australia. We welcome everyone’s active contribution at this open, apolitical forum.
Developed by auDA (.au Domain Administration Ltd), the auIGF provides a unique opportunity for all who use the Internet in Australia to share ideas and experiences, discuss Internet-related policy, identify issues and engage with each other in a multi-stakeholder forum.
Each year we draw up a suggested list of current topics we think are important to cover in the auIGF’s plenary sessions. Topics that we are covering for 2015 include: ‘Gender and the Internet’ (opportunities, empowerment, accountability and obstacles), ‘Internet and indigenous communities’ (the inclusivity and engagement divide), ‘Internet, innovation and the third sector’ and ‘Internet and the law’ (data retention and national security legislation).
The Australian Internet Governance Forum (auIGF) is based on a global multi-stakeholder model originally established by the United Nations.
The 2015 auIGF will be held on 6 & 7 October at the Park Hyatt, Melbourne.
It is proudly presented and hosted by .au Domain Administration Ltd (auDA).
