Diplo, as a lead of the Civil Society Alliances for Digital Empowerment (CADE) consortium, is pleased to invite you to the official launch of the CADE Mapping and Baseline Study Reports. 

The Mapping and Baseline studies shed light on the current landscape, challenges, and opportunities surrounding CSO participation in key Internet Governance (IG) spaces—such as the IGF, ICANN, ITU, and IETF—with a special focus on underrepresented voices from the Global South. The studies also offer actionable recommendations to strengthen meaningful and inclusive engagement of CSOs in these critical digital policy processes. 

📅 Register now! 

The event will: 

  • Present key findings from the global Mapping and Baseline Study reports on civil society engagement in Internet Governance;
  • Highlight systemic barriers and opportunities for CSO participation in IG processes;
  • Feature reflections from Internet Governance institutions (ICANN, ITU, IETF, IGF);
  • Explore next steps to strengthen inclusive digital governance. 

The launch will feature key presentations of the study’s findings, discussion among representatives from civil society, Internet Governance standard setting bodies to reflect on the way forward for CSO participation in shaping the future of the Internet.

Your insights and engagement would add tremendous value to this discussion, and we would be honoured by your presence.

We look forward to your confirmation and to welcoming you at the event.
