El 25 de junio de 2026, el Capítulo de Internet Society Puerto Rico organizó el seminario web ‘Resiliencia de Internet ante conflictos y desastres‘.
Internet es hoy una infraestructura crítica para la vida humana. Ante desastres naturales, crisis climáticas y conflictos armados, la continuidad de la conectividad puede marcar la diferencia entre la vida y la muerte. En este seminario web se exploraron los principios y estándares que Internet Society promueve para garantizar que las redes permanezcan operativas, seguras y accesibles cuando más se necesiten.
El Dr. Gilberto Crespo exploró los tres pilares de la resiliencia de Internet según Internet Society: infraestructura robusta, preparación y recuperación ante desastres, y capacidad comunitaria para sostener la conectividad.

On Saturday-Sunday June 10-11 2023AU Inclusive Technology Policy (ITP), AU Internet Governance Lab (IGL), Technology, Law, and Security Program (TLS), and the AU Institute on Disability and Public Policy (IDPP) will host the 2023 North American School of Internet Governance (NASIG) at American University in Washington DC. NASIG is a capacity-building event that aims to teach the principles, norms, rules, policies, and organizations that shape the internet. Internet governance refers to the development and application of shared principles that guide the evolution and use of the internet and the decision-making processes and organizations involved in shaping it. NASIG also seeks to empower the next generation of internet leaders.
The theme for NASIG 2023 is inclusion and accessibility, an important and timely topic in internet governance. Inclusion and accessibility ensure that all individuals have equal opportunities to participate and benefit from the internet regardless of their background or circumstances. This includes universal access, digital literacy, and the inclusion of marginalized and disadvantaged communities.
On Monday August 9 2021 at 3pm EDT (19:00 UTC) the North America Regional At-Large Organization (NARALO) presents ‘Expedited Policy Development Process (EPDP) on Internationalized Domain Names (IDN)‘. APRALO Chair Satish Babu will consider the following and more:
What are IDN, IDN Variants, PDP, EPDP, and Universal Acceptance (UA)?
Why is EPDP in IDN important to the end user?
The ICANN community has been working on IDN since 2011, why did it take 10 years to work on an IDN policy?
Why an EPDP and not a regular PDP?
How are IDNs incorporated (delegated) in the Domain Name System (DNS)?
What are IDN variants? Why are they important?
Will UA be considered in the EPDP?
What else will be considered in the EPDP?
