* * * Please Forward * * * ======================= Announcing the Launch of the Internet Governance Project www.InternetGovernance.org ======================= We are pleased to announce the launch of the Internet Governance Project (IGP), a multi-university partnership to analyze global Internet policy issues. IGP's research agenda is closely related to the on-going United Nations' review of Internet Governance. IGP's member institutions include two research centers at Syracuse University: - The Convergence Center at the School of Information Studies - The Moynihan Institute of Global Affairs at the Maxwell School and one research center at the Georgia Institute of Technology: - The Internet and Public Policy Project (IP3) at the School of Public Policy As its first project IGP is providing the United Nations' Information and Communication Technologies Task Force (UN ICT TF) a detailed analysis of global policy regimes. The resulting study will provide a fact-based "map" of existing global rules for the Internet and the institutions that make those rules. IGP's research team includes: - MILTON MUELLER, Professor, Syracuse University School of Information Studies - JOHN R. MATHIASON, Adjunct Professor, Syracuse University Maxwell School of Citizenship and Public Affairs - HANS KLEIN, Assoc. Professor, Georgia Institute of Technology, School of Public Policy - LEE MCKNIGHT, Assoc.
