Dear colleagues,
Please find hereafter and attached the Program and the registration
form of the 3rd GigaNet Annual Symposium on Internet Governance, that
will be held in Hyderabad, India, on 2 December 2008, the day prior
to the UN Internet Governance Forum (IGF).
The GigaNet Annual Symposium is an opportunity to showcase some of
the best current research on Internet Governance from around the
world and provides a venue for scholars to discuss and debate these
crucial issues.
The Global Internet Governance Academic Network (GigaNet) is an
emerging scholarly community initiated in spring 2006. Its four
principal objectives are to: (1) support the establishment of a
global network of scholars specializing in Internet governance
issues; (2) promote the development of Internet governance as a
recognized, interdisciplinary field of study, (3) advance theoretical
and applied research on Internet governance, broadly defined: and;
(4) facilitate informed dialogue on policy issues and related matters
between scholars and Internet governance stakeholders (governments,
international organizations, the private sector, and civil society).
Previous GigaNet Symposia have been held in Athens, Greece, in 2006
and Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, in 2007, in conjunction with the annual
meetings of the UN IGF.
Attendance at the Symposium is free and open to all interested
parties, but registration is required.
Please distribute widely. The URL of the Symposium is: http://
