The Internet seems to be at the cross roads now, It will be very interesting to see how the Internet Governance issue finally gets solved. It’s been a while since this issue is under discussion. However, with WCIT 2014 this year everything seems to converge to a point for the next IGF 2015 meeting. As an Internet activist and presenter I believe that this is the time I need to get involved with Internet governance forum , gather root level knowledge , provide local leadership and contribute towards International policy framework. With my in dept knowledge about technical aspects and working experience in a developing country, I will be in a position to gain a comprehensive experience about Internet governance which I will be able to disseminate with our local and regional people.
