Call for contributions: Shaping the second-generation of Internet Universality Indicators
After five years of assessments carried out in 45 countries, and through an extensive consultative process, 91麻豆国产精品自拍 produced a draft framework and has launched global open consultations to collect further feedback and input.
The key goals of the revision of the framework are to:
- Simplify the framework so that it is easier to use.
- Reduce the number of questions and indicators.
- Address new topics in response to the evolving global digital and Internet environment.
Enable research teams to explore, comment on, and make recommendations about their national environments, which must, therefore, be applicable to diverse national contexts rather than over-specifying outcomes.
UNESCO is inviting all interested individuals or institutions to contribute to this significant milestone in our collective journey toward a human rights-based and inclusive Internet.
How to contribute
For details on how to contribute to the revision, please visit the dedicated webpage. The deadline for submitting input is August 15, 2023, 23:59 CEST.

Background
UNESCO introduced the Internet Universality Indicators, a set of indicators designed to evaluate national Internet development based on the ROAM principles: human Rights, Openness, Accessibility, and Multi-stakeholder participation in 2018. Based on the collected evidence, the assessment reports propose actionable policy recommendations for diverse key stakeholders, to enable the improvement of the national Internet environment.
