Shaping Digital Trust for the Internet We Want

Under the overarching theme of the IGF 2023: The Internet We Want – Empowering All People, the objectives of the Parliamentary Track activities are to shape a trustworthy future by:

• Discussing the role of members of Parliaments (MPs) and legislation in shaping a trustworthy digital space.
• Updating MPs on latest AI and data governance practices, and their implications for individuals, the society and the economy.
• Exploring challenges – and potential solutions – related to the use of AI, ensuring they are safe, fair, accountable, transparent, interpretable, trustworthy and aligned with human values.
• Fostering dialogue and exchanges of experiences among MPs on national approaches to disinformation.  
• Engaging in a dialogue with other actors (business sector, technical community, civil society) on multistakeholder approaches to protection of rights and freedoms of individuals.

Parliamentarians from around the world are invited to discuss the proposed issues with experts, share their views, explore the questions at hand, and exchange opinions and experience on existing or potential legislative solutions.

The key messages that emerge from the Parliamentary Track exchanges, including guidelines, and recommendations for parliaments, will be captured as the formal, action-oriented output of the IGF 2023 Parliamentary Track.
