The Open Forum will ignite discussion with regard to the role and the future of the Guide on Human Rights for Internet Users. You will have the possibility to take an active role in shaping the implementation of the Guide, proposing concrete actions that may be included in the Guide Implementation Project. The Side Meeting on ICANN and human rights, which will take place on 3 September, from 11.30 to 13.30, in room 11 (see: http://sched.co/1k5OqLz ).The Side Meeting aims at triggering an open and inclusive dialogue on ICANN’s procedures and policies in the light of human rights, fundamental freedoms and democratic values.
