UNESCO director for Knowledge Societies, Dr. Indrajit Banerjee will lead this panel discussion on UNESCO’s approach to the Internet, as elaborated in its comprehensive study, “Keystones to Foster Inclusive Knowledge Societies.” The study covers issues of access to information and knowledge, ethics, freedom of expression and privacy. These are analyzed in terms of the “Internet Universality” concept, which rests on the principles of Human Rights, Openness, Accessibility and Multi-stakeholder participation. The study presents 30 options for consideration by UNESCO’s general conference of its 195 Member States in November 2015.
