at
the Pegasus Hotel in Georgetown, Guyana.

Guyana is in fact where the CIGF was launched in 2005. In addition to
reviewing achievements over the years, the Forum will address various
facets of Internet Governance of current import to the Caribbean including
UN initiatives to adopt a Global Digital Compact in September 2024 and
undertake a 20-year review of WSIS-initiated activities in 2025 (WSIS+20
Review); enhancing the reach, resiliency and sustainability of critical
digital infrastructure in the Caribbean; fostering adoption and growth of
our digital economies in a trusted and secure manner; and harnessing the
benefits of emergent technologies (e.g. AI) while minimising attendant
risks.
