Speak Out: What Was the Impact of the World Summit on Information Society
(WSIS)?

Following the rapid expansion of information and communication
technologies, the United Nations called for a World Summit on the
Information Society (WSIS) to establish the foundations for an Information
Society for all, reflecting all the different interests at stake. The
two-phase summit, began in Geneva in 2003 and concluded in November 2005.
19,000 ICT decision-makers from 174 states attended the second phase
meetings.

What impact did WSIS have? Did developing countries gain from the Summit?
Were the solutions and agreements reached on Internet governance,
financial mechanisms, and follow-up and implementation adequate?
