The Internet Governance Forum (IGF) is a global platform established by the United Nations in 2006 to facilitate open, inclusive, and multi-stakeholder dialogue on internet governance.
Its key objectives include:
- Facilitating open discussions on global and national internet governance issues.
- Sharing best practices and global experiences.
- Identifying emerging issues and providing actionable recommendations to decision-makers.
- Supporting capacity building and cross-sector collaboration.
The Somalia IGF (SIGF) aligns with these principles, focusing on Somalia’s unique digital landscape. By addressing local opportunities and challenges, SIGF bridges global internet governance frameworks with Somalia’s digital transformation goals.
