The ICANNWiki Edit-a-thon is built to be a teaching and learning tool. Wiki-novices and experts join together to add to our collective knowledge surrounding the latest happenings in Internet governance and ICANN. It is our goal to build a wiki that reflects the expertise and experience of conference attendees, scholars and journalists. Please join ICANNWiki and your fellow attendees in creating a fun, educational event. The first 15-20 participants who make meaningful edits to the wiki will be invited to informal reception with food, drink, prizes and post-conference-day merriment!
