}}'''Asia Pacific Regional Internet Governance Forum (APrIGF)''' is one of the key regional initiatives on Internet governance. By adopting the multi-stakeholder approach as its core principle. APrIGF serves as a platform for discussion exchange and collaboration at a regional level and also where possible to aggregate national IGF discussions, ultimately advance the [[Internet governance]] development in the Asia Pacific region. | |||
== | == Asia Pacific Regional Internet Governance Forum == | ||
Today, Asia has the strongest growing demand for Internet addresses. That is more and more people in Asia are using the Internet. In contrast to North America and Europe, demand for the Internet in Asia is not only growing, but also growing at an accelerating rate. | Today, Asia has the strongest growing demand for Internet addresses. That is more and more people in Asia are using the Internet. In contrast to North America and Europe, demand for the Internet in Asia is not only growing, but also growing at an accelerating rate. | ||
In 2010, while the global IGF<ref>[https://www.intgovforum.org/multilingual/ Internet Governance Forum]</ref> is already in its fifth and final year of its initial charter, and Regional IGFs have been established in many other regions, including Africa, Europe, Latin America and the Caribbean, to date, Asia has seen no parallel forum for discussing Internet governance issues at a regional level. For the first time, the APrIGF is therefore being convened in Hong Kong with objectives to raise awareness and encourage participation from relevant stakeholders around the region on Internet governance issues, as well as to foster multi-lateral, multi-stakeholder discussion about issues pertinent to the Internet in Asia. | |||
The multi-stakeholder approach is a core principle of the APrIGF with the emphasis on the diversity of participants and openness of the discussion. Valuing the youth as an important stakeholder and the future generations of the Internet, a Youth IGF also become an integral part of the APrIGF whereby they are held in parallel annually featuring a simulation of the multi-stakeholder discussion model among the young people on various Internet governance issues. | |||
== Multi-Stakeholder Steering Group (MSG) == | |||
The '''Multi-Stakeholder Steering Group (MSG)''' of APrIGF is a self-organised committee with members from around the AP Internet Community formed with the below objectives: | |||
* To support and ensure the proper conduct of the organizational work of the annual Asia Pacific Regional IGF, | |||
* To promote and encourage dialogue among all stakeholders involved with Internet governance related issues in the Asia Pacific region, and | |||
* To act as an interface between the Asia Pacific IGF community and the global IGF community. | |||
The membership emphasizes the inclusion of multi-stakeholders and so is open to any interested individuals within the AP region who are committed to: | |||
* The Organisational Principles of openness, transparency and multi-stakeholder cooperation, | |||
* Devote some time and effort in support of the APrIGF, and | |||
* Maintaining and demonstrating respect for all other members. | |||
Any interested individuals who would like to join the MSG must read through the Operating Principles<ref>[https://aprigf.asia/msg.html#op Operating Principles of MSG]</ref> of the MSG as well as acknowledging and accepting it. If you wish to become part of the MSG, please kindly contact the secretariat. | |||
An Election Procedure<ref>[https://aprigf.asia/documents/APrIGF_MSG_Election_Procedure.pdf Election Procedure of APrIGF MSG]</ref> has been adopted by the MSG on 2 July 2015 during the APrIGF Macao 2015. | |||
We welcome any comments and feedback on the Operating Principles from the community whereby amendments could be made under the discussion and decision from the MSG from time to time whenever necessary. | |||

Asia Pacific Regional Internet Governance Forum (APrIGF) is one of the key regional initiatives on Internet governance. By adopting the multi-stakeholder approach as its core principle. APrIGF serves as a platform for discussion exchange and collaboration at a regional level and also where possible to aggregate national IGF discussions, ultimately advance the Internet governance development in the Asia Pacific region.
Asia Pacific Regional Internet Governance Forum[edit | edit source]
Today, Asia has the strongest growing demand for Internet addresses. That is more and more people in Asia are using the Internet. In contrast to North America and Europe, demand for the Internet in Asia is not only growing, but also growing at an accelerating rate.
In 2010, while the global IGF[1] is already in its fifth and final year of its initial charter, and Regional IGFs have been established in many other regions, including Africa, Europe, Latin America and the Caribbean, to date, Asia has seen no parallel forum for discussing Internet governance issues at a regional level. For the first time, the APrIGF is therefore being convened in Hong Kong with objectives to raise awareness and encourage participation from relevant stakeholders around the region on Internet governance issues, as well as to foster multi-lateral, multi-stakeholder discussion about issues pertinent to the Internet in Asia.
The multi-stakeholder approach is a core principle of the APrIGF with the emphasis on the diversity of participants and openness of the discussion. Valuing the youth as an important stakeholder and the future generations of the Internet, a Youth IGF also become an integral part of the APrIGF whereby they are held in parallel annually featuring a simulation of the multi-stakeholder discussion model among the young people on various Internet governance issues.
Multi-Stakeholder Steering Group (MSG)[edit | edit source]
The Multi-Stakeholder Steering Group (MSG) of APrIGF is a self-organised committee with members from around the AP Internet Community formed with the below objectives:
- To support and ensure the proper conduct of the organizational work of the annual Asia Pacific Regional IGF,
- To promote and encourage dialogue among all stakeholders involved with Internet governance related issues in the Asia Pacific region, and
- To act as an interface between the Asia Pacific IGF community and the global IGF community.
The membership emphasizes the inclusion of multi-stakeholders and so is open to any interested individuals within the AP region who are committed to:
- The Organisational Principles of openness, transparency and multi-stakeholder cooperation,
- Devote some time and effort in support of the APrIGF, and
- Maintaining and demonstrating respect for all other members.
Any interested individuals who would like to join the MSG must read through the Operating Principles[2] of the MSG as well as acknowledging and accepting it. If you wish to become part of the MSG, please kindly contact the secretariat.
An Election Procedure[3] has been adopted by the MSG on 2 July 2015 during the APrIGF Macao 2015.
We welcome any comments and feedback on the Operating Principles from the community whereby amendments could be made under the discussion and decision from the MSG from time to time whenever necessary.
