Projecting the Evolution of the Internet, its Technologies, Communities and Management: Canadian stakeholders' understandings and perceptions of the issues
With the support of Industry Canada, IISD hosted a workshop in Vancouver in March 2009, which specifically sought to broaden previous stakeholder engagements to include Canadian viewpoints from government, civil society and private sector interests covering health care, academia, media, urban development, energy and corporate social responsibility. In addition to considering the scenarios developed, IISD explored with participants what they value, want and expect with respect to the future growth of the Internet and its role in supporting a more sustainable society. This report captures participants' recommendations to Industry Canada, as well as to themselves in terms of their stake and responsibility in the shared development of the Internet. IISD also recommends follow-up actions to further engage Canadian Internet users.
