About
Who is IGP?
The Internet Governance Project (IGP) is an alliance of academics that puts expertise into practical action in the fields of global governance, Internet policy, and information and communication technology. The Project both researches and publishes analysis of global Internet policy issues. You can read more on how our work relates to the interests of civil society.

We continue to add participants from other world regions as appropriate collaborative relationships are forged.
