Internet Democracy Project

The overarching goal of the WSIS over the past ten years has been to create ‘a people-centred, development-oriented, inclusive information society’. We are still far away from that goal. In that light, what are the issues that civil society in the Asia Pacific wants its governments to squarely address in the process of that review? This meeting is organised by the Internet Democracy Project and by Bytes for All, Pakistan, to start making a beginning to answering that question.  Details

The Regional Consultation on Expression, Opinion and Religious Freedom in Asia will bring together over 70 human rights defenders, activists and journalists from across the region — including the UN Special Rapporteur on Freedom of Opinion & Expression — to discuss and debate issues related to religious expression. The event is being organised by Bytes for All, Pakistan, in collaboration with FORUM-ASIA, Global Partners Digital, the Association for Progressive Communication, the Internet Democracy Project, ICT Watch and KontraS.  Details
