Dear all, I hope this email finds you well. We are excited for our session tomorrow "Governance Gaps in addressing online harms: NIS2 and Beyond", and you can access the description here <https://intgovforum.org/en/content/igf-2024-dc-dnsi-beyond-borders-nis2s-im…> . This will be an inclusive roundtable discussion focused on examining how to address governance gaps in multistakeholder responses to online harms. The session is scheduled for tomorrow ( *Wednesday December 18 from 13:45 to 15:15 local time) in workshop room 9 for those attending in person.* We had a very successful session at IGF 2023 where we discussed the question of governance gaps in addressing online harms. We encourage everyone to review our 2023 report here <https://intgovforum.org/en/content/igf-2023-dc-dnsi-closing-the-governance-….> and to join this session to help us further advance the conversation. Starting in 2025, and as discussions unfold in preparation for the WSIS+20, our hope is to expand this group and begin coordinating quarterly catch up calls. More on that to come in the new year.

DC DNSI session at IGF 2024 - Governance Gaps in addressing online harms: NIS2 and Beyond

by Carolina Caeiro

Dear all, I hope this email finds you well. I am writing to share some updates about the DC-DNSI. The coalition has gotten a confirmed spot for IGF 2024. The session is entitled "Governance Gaps in addressing online harms: NIS2 and Beyond", and you can access the description here <https://intgovforum.org/en/content/igf-2024-dc-dnsi-beyond-borders-nis2s-im…> . This will be an inclusive roundtable discussion focused on examining how to address governance gaps in multistakeholder responses to online harms. Specifically, the session will look at (a) the impact of emerging regulation, with a focus on the global impact of the NIS2 Directive and (b) how industry can collaborate more closely to resolve persistent governance gaps. The session will host 6 speakers from across sectors and regions including representatives from civil society, technical community and industry. The session is tentatively scheduled for *Wednesday December 18 from 13:45 to 15:15 local time.* My colleague Georgia Osborn, in copy, will send a reminder to the list with remote connection details for those of you not present in Riyadh closer to the event date. We had a very successful session at IGF 2023 where we discussed the question of governance gaps in addressing online harms. We encourage everyone to review our 2023 report here <https://intgovforum.org/en/content/igf-2023-dc-dnsi-closing-the-governance-….> and to join this session to help us further advance the conversation. If anyone has any thoughts or comments on the session format, description, or proposed speakers, we are still in the process of finalising details, and we would welcome the group's feedback. Starting in 2025, and as discussions unfold in preparation for the WSIS+20, our hope is to expand this group and begin coordinating quarterly catch up calls. More on that to come in the new year.

Re: Dynamic Coalition on DNS Issues - Reactivating the group + updates

by Carolina Caeiro

Hi Michele, Thank you for this message, we are excited to hear you've subscribed to the list and we greatly appreciate your feedback. In reaction to your question, we drafted the action plan to have a text to work from. The action plan is not written in stone, and as a matter of fact, we are actively looking for inputs and intend to update it to reflect the contributions from the group. In terms of the contents of the plan, our intention was precisely to focus on constructive, positive conversation: how can we do better, address governance gaps, and reinforce forms of multi stakeholder cooperation on DNS related issues. As much as these conversations play out in other spaces, we find the DC has much to contribute to ongoing IGF discussions as well. Having said this, it would be great to know whether you have any specific elements or language that you would like to see reflected in the plan so we can discuss those here in the list.

Re: Dynamic Coalition on DNS Issues - Reactivating the group + updates

by Michele Neylon - Blacknight

Carolina et al I’ve added myself to the new mailing list as I am curious to see where this group is going. I am, however, a little confused as to why the group was not consulted in the drafting of the “work plan” before it was made public. With respect to the work plan, why is it so focussed on the negative? There are already plenty of fora for more interminable discussions around “abuse”, cyber security threats (which are much broader than the DNS) and other elements.

Re: Dynamic Coalition on DNS Issues - Reactivating the group + updates

Dear Carolina - and all, In the recent times my main interest has shifted from DNS matters to issues related to multilingualism in the Internet. I know that multilingualism has aspects that are related to the DNS, like for instance IDNs, but my focus is now more on a cultural point of view rather than a technical point of view. I will therefore not join the new mailing list, but plan to nevertheless attend the DC-DNSI session, that I have marked on my calendar.

Dynamic Coalition on DNS Issues - Reactivating the group + updates

by Carolina Caeiro

Dear all, It is a pleasure to resume contact with all members of the Dynamic Coalition on DNS Issues. This is Carolina Caeiro from the DNS Research Federation and Nik Smith from Verisign. Nik and I have been collaborating on reactivating the work of the DC-DNSI over the last couple of months.

We are reaching out to invite you to join the conversation! We have *updated the work plan for the DC-DNSI*.
