The first Argentina School on Internet Governance (ARGENSIG) is being held in Buenos Aires from 29-31 August 2017. Following the success of the South School of Internet Governance that was started in 2009 and has been held every year since then in different countries in Latin America and the Caribbean. For the first time ever, CCATLAT, ISOC Argentina and SSIG organized this space for training and dialogue on Internet governance in Argentina.

The primary objective of ARGENSIG is to train future leaders of Internet governance in Argentina from a global perspective, with a national and regional focus.

Welcome to ICANNWiki
What is ICANN?


Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers (ICANN) is a global multi-stakeholder organization that was created an 1998 and empowered through actions by the U.S. government and its Department of Commerce. Its primary responsibility is to manage the Internet's core infrastructure, which consists of IP addresses, domain names, and root servers. It coordinates the Internet's DNS, IP addresses and autonomous system numbers, which involves a continued management of these evolving systems and the protocols that underly them.

On 1 October 2016, the oversight of ICANN transitioned from the U.S. government to the private sector, which will govern the Internet's unique identifiers through the multistakeholder model.
