Why is the WSIS+20 Review relevant and important to the APAC region? 

The World Summit on the Information Society (WSIS) is an United Nations General Assembly (UNGA) – level process focused on global ICT governance and development, covering topics such as Internet governance, the communications enabling environment, digital transformation and development, universal and meaningful connectivity, ICT infrastructure, media, capacity building, and emerging ICTs. UN Member States, including those from the APAC region, will consider the 20-year review of the WSIS (i.e. WSIS+20) at the UN Headquarters in New York in late-2025.

The outcomes of the WSIS+20 Review has the potential to impact globally, including (among others) the current multistakeholder model of Internet governance, or the future of digital transformation and, progress on achieving universal and meaningful connectivity in the APAC region. Therefore, facilitating dialogues to improve regional engagement and collaboration leading up to the preparatory process is important. To equip stakeholders to participate actively in the APAC DNS Forum 2025, this pre-event webinar seeks to provide participants with background information and the necessary resources.
