ICTP 371: Shaping the future of the internet, a conversation with ICANN's CEO, Kurtis Lindqvist
Manage episode 512198892 series 2273704
Globally, countries are grappling with a broad range of internet-related issues: from ensuring digital inclusion and improved network resilience to AI governance to digital sovereignty. One of the leading organisations for internet governance policy development is ICANN, the Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers.
In this episode, we are joined by ICANN CEO and President Kurt Erik "Kurtis" Lindqvist, who was a featured speaker during the Caribbean Telecommunications Union's ICT Week, which was held in Jamaica during the week of 29 September. During our conversation, Kurtis shared his thoughts on, among other things:
* the multi-stakeholder model, which has come under increasing criticism over the years;
* our progress globally towards achieving the WSIS framework's objectives and the action lines;
* why a multilingual Internet is important; and
* specific goals he would like to accomplish before his tenure as CEO ends.
