According to the Report of the Working Group on Internet Governance (WGIG) (June 2005 P.4), Internet Governance is the development and application by governments, the private sector, and civil society in their respective roles of shared principles, norms, rules, decision-making procedures, and programs that shape the evolution and use of the Internet. Internet Governance was an idea convoked by the UN Secretary General in the backdrop of WSIS 2003 (Geneva) and WSIS 2005 (Tunisia).

==Issues==
The issues in internet governance and digital policy fall into seven categories: infrastructure, cybersecurity, human rights, legal and regulatory, economic, development, and sociocultural. [[Diplo]] executive director [[Jovan Kurbalija]] developed this taxonomy in 1997 and expanded on it in ''An Introduction to Internet Governance''.<ref>[https://www.diplomacy.edu/topics/internet-governance-and-digital-policy/ Internet governance and digital policy, Diplomacy.edu]</ref>
* Infrastructure includes the telecommunications that facilitate digital communication, such as under-sea fiber optic cables and powerlines; technical issues and digital standards; and critical internet resources, such as internet protocol numbers, the DNS, and the root zone.<ref>[https://dig.watch/topics/infrastructure Infrastructure, Dig.Watch]</ref>
* [[Cybersecurity]] refers to efforts at defending cyberspace from state and non-state actors' malicious uses, acts that threaten peace and security, undercut trust in the digital economy and services, or stall the digital transformation of societies and economies. Subtopics include: child safety online, attacks on critical infrastructure, cyberwarfare, cybercrime, encryption, network security, and violent extremism.<ref>[https://dig.watch/topics/cybersecurity Cybersecurity, Dig.Watch]</ref>
