On 22–23 May 2013 .SE is organising the second Stockholm Internet Forum on Internet Freedom for Global Development (SIF13) together with the Ministry for Foreign Affairs and Sida. The first Stockholm Internet Forum (SIF12) was held in April this year.
During two days, a broad spectrum of international participants, including representatives of governments, stakeholder organisations and the business sector as well as researchers and internet activists, will gather in Sweden to discuss freedom and security on the internet and the importance of an open and free internet for global development.
”The fundamental reasons why .SE is involved in internet freedom is our view of the opportunities an open and free internet provides to both individuals and society. It particularly stimulates innovation and economic growth and supports democracy and freedom of expression,” says Danny Aerts, CEO of .SE.
