THE INTERNET IS FOR EVERYONE
A message to all members of ISOC MY Chapter
Congratulation to our very own Yoon-Kit for being selected as Internet
Society Fellow to attend the IETF 79, Beijing, 7-12 November 2010
[Geneva, Switzerland and Washington D.C., 8 June 2010] – As the Internet
rapidly evolves into a truly global medium central to all aspects of human
affairs, the need intensifies for future leaders to be drawn from all
regions of the world and all walks of life. The Internet Society, uniquely
positioned to meet this need, today announced the list of potential leaders
joining its programmes for 2010.
The Internet Society's Next Generation Leaders programme blends coursework,
practical experience, and mentorship to help prepare young professionals
from around the world to become the next generation of
Internet technology, policy, and business leaders.
"We are pleased to have 24 promising students currently in the eLearning
phase of our programme," said Bill Graham, responsible for strategic global
engagement at the Internet Society. "Five of those will also join 32 others
in the coming months, expanding their leadership skills while they learn
about the Internet and the Internet Society's principles, either as Fellows
to the Internet Engineering Task Force meetings or Ambassadors to the
Internet Governance Forum (IGF)."
The current participants in the programme come from 39 economies
highlighting the universal reach of the Internet and the diverse impacts it
has around the world.
With continuing sponsorship from Nominet Trust into next year, and the
patronage of European Commission, the Next Generation Leaders programme
seeks to identify potential Internet leaders and help them accelerate
their careers.
Lina Sipson, Trust Officer at Nominet Trust agrees: "We are very pleased to
continue to support ISOC and work with such a great organization to help
prepare young professionals who will become the next generation of
Internet technology, policy and business leaders."
