On the other side of the I&S ’04 conference and the other side of the Atlantic, I’m in Tallinn, Estonia, about to start the first iLaw program in the
former Soviet Union. We’ve got a terrific group of advanced
policy activists from Eastern Europe and the CIS, admitted by
application, here for a modified version of our 5-year-old Internet Law
program. Rafal Rohozinski (University of Cambridge and a partner
of ours at the ONI) will handle the first lecture, and then into
telecommunications policy with Jim Dempsey (CDT) and Jane Coffin (on
assignment with US AID in Armenia), and end today with internet policy
and the debates over internet governance at WSIS and elsewhere around
the world.
