Workshop on Cross-Border Frameworks for Interoperability and Fair Process
Abstract
The Internet & Jurisdiction Project, in collaboration with the Centre for Communication Governance of the National Law University Delhi, is organising a workshop on ‘Handling the tension between terms of service and national jurisdictions: What cross-border frameworks to ensure interoperability and fair process?’
The objectives of the workshop are:
-
To identify high-level trends related to the Internet and jurisdiction in India.
-
To document how states, platforms and users cope with the regulatory patchwork of national laws in areas such as privacy, defamation, copyright and freedom of expression.
-
To explore what multi-stakeholder frameworks can be developed to handle seizures, takedowns and Law Enforcement Agencies’ access to user data.
The workshop is part of a series of meetings convened by the Internet & Jurisdiction Project with different stakeholder groups around the world (Brazil, Europe, India and US). The results of the discussion will feed into the Workshop 42 ‘Fair process frameworks for cross-border online spaces’ at the Internet Governance Forum 2013 in Indonesia, which takes place on October 22 – 25, 2013.
The Internet Democracy Project is participating in the Delhi event.
