✔️ Jakie środki należy podjąć, aby zapewnić, że suwerenność cyfrowa nie zmieni się w nadużywanie praw człowieka?
✔️ W jaki sposób młodzi ludzie mogą zaangażować się w ograniczanie obecnych, szkodliwych trendów do fragmentacji Internetu?

W ramach tej sesji podczas , której moderatorem była Emilia Zalewska z NASK, przedstawiciele różnych środowisk zaprezentowali uczestnikom swoje stanowiska na temat zjawiska ,,Spliternetu” i suwerenności cyfrowej. Jest to temat kontrowersyjny i skomplikowany. Z jednej strony, zrozumiała jest potrzeba państw do zapewnienia sobie możliwości wpływu na przestrzeń cyfrową dotyczącą ich obywateli, z drugiej jednak, fragmentacja Internetu zagraża neutralnej, wielostronnej i wolnej naturze światowej sieci. Dlatego tak ważne jest poszukiwanie narzędzi i ram, które pozwoliłyby zachować równowagę pomiędzy fragmentacją Internetu a suwerennością cyfrową oraz zagwarantować przestrzeganie praw człowieka w świecie cyfrowym.

✔️ Jakie są oczekiwania liderów cyberbezpieczeństwa dotyczących umiejętności kandydatów do pracy?
✔️ Jakie są faktyczne kompetencje cyfrowe absolwentów uczelni wyższych?

Podczas IGF-Ethiopia 2022 został zaprezentowany raport z badań dotyczących wypełniania luki między potrzebami branży cyberbezpieczeństwa a umiejętnościami absolwentów szkół wyższych. W realizację badań zaangażowany był NASK, a ich wyniki mogą być pomocne z diagnozowaniu braków oraz poprawianiu stanu wiedzy i umiejętności związanych z cyberbezpieczeństwem.

📊 W ramach projektu przygotowany został nie tylko szczegółowy raport, ale również strategie i zalecenia dla decydentów zarówno w sektorach podaży, jak i popytu. Wyniki zostały zaprezentowane interesariuszom podczas Szczytu Cyfrowego ONZ IGF 2022 w Etiopii. Będą także uwzględnione podczas planowania aktywności koalicji IS3C w 2023 roku.

2022 IGF day 3

"Balancing Digital Sovereignty and Splinternet"

One of today's topics. Very provocative.

This can be considered a political question, of course. Nevertheless, moreover, it is also important to wonder about the ethical or even cultural turn that this question of digital sovereignty can take depending on the horizons.

Indeed, it is crucial to save the borderless side of the Internet model from the threat of the Splinternet, of course. But, not everyone should be expected to view the matter from the same common side.

The process of approaching this issue is delicate, but I believe it will require real consensus.
