CIGI and the Reset Initiative host the second meeting of the Global Platform Governance Network.
Governments around the world continue to face challenges in finding ways to engage meaningfully with transnational social media platforms. Yet the information ecosystem these companies make up is heavily implicated in a number of key public policy goals. Even for those governments considering legislative or regulatory measures to address online harms, moving forward requires some degree of cooperation on the part of social media companies, as is the case in other regulated industries.
This meeting will tackle the issue head-on through a panel discussion between experts and network members, as well as through moderated group discussions. It is our intention that members leave this discussion with a clear strategy that they can apply to their day-to-day work.
Host:
- Chris Beall, Policy Lead, Platform Governance, CIGI
Speakers:
- Rebekah Tromble, George Washington University
- Susan Benesch, Dangerous Speech Project
- Marietje Schaake, International Policy Director, Cyber Policy Center, Stanford University
