Dear all,

The call for inputs for the IGF intersessional track on Policy Options for Connecting and Enabling the Next Billion – Phase IV is open until 30 September.

The objective for this year CENB IV is to collect concrete stories showcasing how connecting the next billion(s) helps achieve broader Sustainable Development Goals such as: SDG 7 (Sustainable Energy), SDG 8 (Future of Work), SDG 9 (Infrastructure with a particular mention to Internet access), and SDG 17 (Partnerships).

The activity builds on Phase I, Phase II, and Phase III of the CENB which offered a set of high-level recommendations for policy leaders. With the combination of four phases of the CENB project, policymakers will be able to use both policy recommendations and concrete findings (case studies) from the IGF community.    

Anyone interested in contributing can follow the instructions at: https://www.intgovforum.org/multilingual/content/cenb-%E2%80%93-phase-iv-0

Please help us spread the word in order to receive as many contributions as possible.

And don’t hesitate to let us know if you have any questions.

Thanks in advance!
