[isoc-ny] VIDEO: Armenian Internet Governance Forum #armigf2015

Wed Sep 16 00:36:46 PDT 2015

Here is the full video lineup from last week's Armenian IGF. This is all in
English, and speakers include members of other ISOC Chapters such as Holly
Raiche from Australia, and Ali Almeshal from Bahrain. Across two days an
impressively wide range of topics were presented, with some deep discussion
of issues such as content, media, cybersecurity, and net neutrality. If you
only view one session, make it the last one where panel leaders do some
summing up.
