<p>Background: While the discussion doesn’t build directly on previous conversations, it is related to recent legal research (included in the background documents and at <a href="http://adrd.uwazi.io">http://adrd.uwazi.io</a>) conducted by SMEX and APC on legislation affecting human rights online in the 22 countries of the Arab League and Cambodia, India, Malaysia, Myanmar, Pakistan, and Thailand. This research will continue in the coming years and expand to other regions, including Latin America, sub-Saharan Africa, and Eurasia.</p>
</div></div></div><div class="field field-name-field-session-content field-type-text-long field-label-above"><div class="field-label">Session Content:&nbsp;</div><div class="field-items"><div class="field-item even"><p>After more than two decades of relatively little direct legislation of the Internet, in developed and developing countries alike, national laws meant to govern the internet are rapidly proliferating, in response to data privacy and protections concerns (like the GDPR) and also as a means of managing age-old, pre-digital challenges like organized crime, hate speech, propaganda, gender violence, and violent extremism as they migrate online and take advantage of the particular affordances of digital technologies and networks. As a result, these laws are becoming a key factor in the evolution of Internet governance globally.</p>
<p>Yet in many cases, these laws are drafted and passed without a full understanding of the technologies and processes they regulate or their implications on the preservation of the core values of the internet—interoperability, universality, and free expression and the free flow of information. At the same time, jurisprudence citing such laws is only beginning to emerge and, where it does exist, can be difficult to locate in many contexts, not only expanding the gap in understanding among people trying to interpret the law, including members of parliament, judges and lawyers, corporations, and ordinary citizens but also threatening to transform digital networks into minefields of regulations that compromise the potential for innovation, expression, and economic development.</p>
<p>In this roundtable, a multistakeholder group of experts in internet law and jurisprudence, and particularly the development of new legislation, will discuss their experiences observing the development of these new internet-targeted legal interventions and their expected and unexpected impacts and help distill lessons learned for internet law and policy makers. Participants will also consider the relevance and utility of establishing a best practice forum or dynamic coalition on the rule of law in the digital sphere.</p>
<p>The roundtable will begin with a 20-minute overview of some of the recent laws passed to govern the internet in national contexts with brief analysis of their ripple effects both internally and beyond borders. Noting similarities and differences in the approaches of developing internet legislation in a variety of contexts around the world (specifically Nigeria, Argentina, South Asia and Southeast Asia, and elsewhere) and citing specific law and caselaw, the roundtable will then turn its focus to how internet governance is increasingly being regulated at the country level through national legislation and jurisprudence and consider during the next 60 minutes several of the following questions:</p>
<p>+ What are the implications of this increase in national legislation, and its related jurisprudence, for a global, interoperable internet?How difficult is it becoming to navigate? What are the potential effects on established global human and civil rights norms? For example, what has the impact been, both nationally, regionally, and even internationally? What do we want to see more of, what do we want to see less of?<br />
+ How are national lawmakers approaching the development, drafting, and passage of legislation? Is it usually in response to potential threats or a pro-active affirmation of rights, as is the case of the new Nigerian Digital Rights and Freedom bill? Who is being involved by lawmakers in the legislation drafting process? Users, technical experts, etc.?<br />
+ What have been the implications for the private sector, multinationals and national level companies, as well as for entrepreneurs?<br />
+ Have these laws made the internet more predictable, safer for women and marginalized groups? If so, how? If not, why not?<br />
+ Do we risk creating parallel legal environments?<br />
+ What can we learn from the range of experiences? Recognizing that national governments will continue to regulate the internet, are there best practices to developing and disseminating such laws that we can derive from the experiences we’ve discussed?<br />
+ How can the internet governance ecosystem play a more integrated role in the development of legislation that maintains norms? Is there value to continuing this conversation, possibly as a best practice forum or a dynamic coalition, perhaps on the rule of law in the digital sphere?</p>
<p>Walk-in participants will be encouraged to share their experiences and lessons learned during the discussion. The final 10 minutes will be devoted to summarizing the discussion and proposing next steps. All interventions and proposed next steps will be summarized in an outcome document by the rapporteur by the end of the session and circulated to roundtable participants.</p>

<p>Agustina del Campo, academic/lawyer, director of Center for Studies on Freedom of Expression and Access to Information (CELE) at the University of Palermo in Argentina. She will discuss her experience with the systemization of free expression legislation, including identifying legal trends, in Latin American and how what she's learned can be applied to new Internet related laws.</p>
<p>Gayatri Khandhadai, civil society, Association for Progressive Communications, will discuss analysis of legislation in South and Southeast Asian countries and lessons learned from research done in six countries on the criminalisation of online expression in both new and old legislation.</p>
<p>Lisl Brunner (private sector) director of global public policy at AT&amp;T; will discuss the importance of understanding country legal frameworks related to the internet for effective private sector operation, entrepreneurial innovation, etc., as well as work telecom companies have done to try to make those frameworks more transparent through the COuntry Legal Frameworks hosted at the Global Network Initiative, and the benefits of that transparency.</p>
<p>Gbenga Sesan or the Nigerian sponsor of the new Digital Rights &amp; Freedom bill will discuss the importance of passing a rights-affirming law as a strong foundation for legal frameworks related to digital spaces as well as the process of getting the bill through parliament.</p>
<p>If possible, we will also ask a youth representative from Brazil to talk about the Marco Civil 4 years later and the more than 300 internet-related bills now in the legislative process in Brazil.</p>

The following stakeholder groups are represented: Government (Dutch MFA), civil society (APC, Paradigm Initiative Nigeria), Academia (CELE, Argentina), and private sector (USA, AT&amp;T, if available). Jessica Dheere, the proposer/organizer is a first-time organizer from Lebanon. We will aim to invite a youth representative from Brazil to discuss Marco Civil and Radar Legislativo and others as either experts or walk-in participants, if the session is accepted.</p>

We will encourage remote participation through social media but will will also solicit questions ahead of time from those who cannot attend in person. Throughout the session #IGF2018 will be used and so will #ictlaws and a dedicated communications person will be available to facilitate online participation and to increase the visibility of the session and IGF among the networks of the co-organisers.</p>

We will also ask walk-in participants to make us aware of other laws not mentioned. Then, the moderator will facilitate a 60-minute discussion, allowing each expert to address a specific aspect of the questions outlined above. During the 60 minutes, the moderator will punctuate the speaker interventions by picking up a thread from the most recent speaker and asking for brief reflections, responses, or contributions from the walk-in participants. In the final 10 minutes, the group will consolidate the conversation into a set of desired practices and next steps for continuing the discussion. The moderator is a skilled interviewer and moderator and will make sure to keep the conversation lively and short-winded. In addition, it's likely that insights will be recorded on a flipchart or other visual aid as the conversation progresses.</p>
