RightsCon Toronto 2018 - Sustainability

by Michael J. Oghia

Hi everyone, Please see the email below from the Access Now team – the organization behind the RightsCon Summit Series. The conference is being held in Toronto in May 2018, the same week as the ICT for Sustainability (ICT4S) conference. Hopefully we can spur some synergies between the ICT4S and Internet governance/digital rights communities, especially since they are introducing a sustainability track. Best, -Michael Oghia _________________ Dear Friends, We’re inviting you to set the agenda at RightsCon Toronto <https://www.rightscon.org/> (May 16-18, 2018) by designing and building a session through our Call for Proposals <https://www.rightscon.org/submission/>, open until November 24, 2017. *We’re particularly excited to see your submissions under the track for Digital Tech and Sustainable Development, as well as Environment, Health, Land, and Labour. We are looking to expand the program on these issues for this year’s event, and it will be an excellent opportunity for collaboration across sectors. * Why lead a RightsCon session? RightsCon is home to the world’s leading community of movers and shakers in the digital age. The event brings together policy makers, business leaders, government representatives, technologists, campaigners, and human rights defenders from around the world. RightsCon Toronto is set to be our biggest and most impactful event yet, with over 2000 participants from 110 countries and 750 organizations. Leading a session is the best way to make a direct impact at RightsCon: from identifying and mapping problems, to connecting with the right allies and partners, and workshopping solutions and ultimately driving change. By getting involved in the program and setting the agenda, you will gain expert insight, build new strategic partnerships, and influence global norms. What does a RightsCon session look like? Timely, engaging, outcomes-oriented, and creative. We suggest you start by reading our submission guide <https://rightscon.org/submissionguide>, as it offers helpful tips and suggestions for what makes a great proposal! There are many different formats you can choose from: - Need to get our community together to problem-solve a major challenge? Design a Fishbowl. - Want to launch or showcase a new internet freedom product? Do a Tech Demo . - Have a specific policy or advocacy strategy you want to map out? Lead a Workshop. - Looking to give a crash course on a recent development in your field? Give a Lightning Talk. There’s no one-size-fits-all approach in setting the RightsCon agenda, but the key to a successful session is picking the right format to engage participants and achieve your objectives. Still not sure which format is best? We’re here to help, email us at conference(a)accessnow.org.

Grant Opportunity - Open Cellular

by Jane Coffin

Hello, All – Please find a grant opportunity: https://oc.telecominfraproject.com/opencellular-grant-program/ “OpenCellular Grants (OCG) is a program to fund, promote and accelerate the non-commercial development and deployment of OpenCellular (OC) equipment in rural areas where access to cellular is limited. The successful development and adoption of OC in rural communities could lead to significantly more people gaining access to cellular service. The OCG grant program is specifically designed to address this opportunity.” Data about OC is here: https://oc.telecominfraproject.com/opencellular-grant-program/ Video here: https://oc.telecominfraproject.com/ Best, Jane Internet Society | www.internetsociety.org Skype: janercoffin Mobile/WhatsApp: +1.202.247.8429

Sustainability at RIPE 75

by Michael J. Oghia

Hi everyone, Earlier this year, I began the endeavor to build bridges between the Internet governance / infrastructure community(ies) and the sustainable ICT academic and research community. In many ways, current Internet technology is not sustainable. This relates to overall lack of design consideration of ICTs for sustainability (such as recycling or energy scaling), and includes issues such as pollution, electronic waste (e-waste), and energy use. Dr. Mike Hazas was one of the first people who inspired me to do more work in this field, and he was the keynote speaker at a EuroDIG roundtable workshop on sustainable Internet access held in June. After the session, he connected with members of RIPE NCC's external relations team who encouraged him to apply for one of the academic fellowships (RACI) to attend RIPE 75 in Dubai, and I am delighted to share his presentation and lecture: Mike Hazas, Lancaster University, UK Internet Services and Energy Demand https://ripe75.ripe.net/archives/video/154 I encourage everyone to continue to consider sustainability in all of its forms going forward, and encourage discussions around this topic. I also CCd him in case anyone would like to raise a comment or question. Thank you, -Michael __________________ Michael J.

Inputs on the DC3-Report Cover

by Luca Belli

Dear all, If you have any suggestion for the image to be put on the cover of the DC3 report, please share them on-list or send me a private message. Ideally the image should represent a network and be quite minimal (as you would expect from a book cover) and either in Creative Commons license or of your authorship (in the latter case you will be acknowledged as the image author) I would suggest something more or less like the picture below. Suggestions are welcome All the best Luca [Imagem relacionada]
