  32. Relevance:
  33. Big data, as a new emerging and challenging technology, is providing unprecedented opportunities for information society and communities to address more complex tasks, especially in dealing with climate changes, which include changing weather patterns, rising sea level, and more extreme weather events. To address climate change, countries adopted the Paris Agreement at the COP21 in Paris on 12 December 2015 and entered into force shortly thereafter, on 4 November 2016. Implementation of the Paris Agreement is also essential for the achievement of the United Nation’s Sustainable Development Goals, and provides a roadmap for climate actions (SDGs 13). There are more and more big data programs and actions over the world in either global scale, such as Open Data in a Big Data Era (International Council for Sciences-ICSU), long term program, such as the International Oceanographic Data and Information Exchange" (IODE-UNESCO), regional scales, such as Global Change Research Data Publishing & Repository (Chinese Academy of Sciences – CAS), and many local scale data programs. The new challenges from the big data cover the data in not only local scale, but regional and global; not only issues on data sharing, but data quality, security, timely, intellectual protection, networking, inter-operational technology etc. New laws, such as the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) will frame a new big data environment. In order to recognize the big data challenges more focusable address the issues more efficiently and find out solutions more reliable, a common understanding of big data governance should come out soon.
  34. Session Content:
  35. This workshop keeps to the theme of IGF 2018 “Development, Innovation & Economic Issues” and focuses on the big data governance for Paris Agreement and SDGs. The session is to be expanded in three parts: new milestone of the big data under global change, big data on laws and regulations, and big data network governance. The expected outcomes are: 1.Reach common understanding and explore cooperation mechanism of multistakeholders on big data and governance in implementing SDGs. 2.Holding a follow-up workshop next year and come out a big data governance principles and guidelines. 3.Finally achieve the global governance beyond the borders of countries and regions.
