dc.descriptionThe 17th Internet Governance Forum (IGF) was hosted by the Government of Ethiopia with the support of UN ECA and UN DESA. The forum took place from 28 November to 2 December 2022 in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia, under the overarching theme of Resilient Internet for a Shared Sustainable and Common Future. There were five themes that guided the agenda of the meeting, drawn from the Global Digital Compact found in the UN Secretary-General's report on Our Common Agenda. The 17th annual IGF was hosted in a hybrid format. The meeting aimed at accommodating the participation of stakeholders present onsite in Addis Ababa or participating online in an equitable manner. This hybrid approach also extended to the session organizing teams (organizers, speakers, moderators, and rapporteurs) who participated online or onsite. The 17th Global Internet Governance Forum(IGF), hosted by Ethiopia, has been successfully concluded in Addis Ababa on Friday December 2, 2022, according to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. Deputy Prime Minister and Foreign Minister, Demeke Mekonnen, who attended the closing ceremony, appreciated the Ministry of Innovation and Technology, its partners, and participants for making the IGF 2022 a success. He expressed his delight that the IGF 2022 took place in Ethiopia when the peace agreement was reached to end the two-year conflict in the north. He added that Ethiopia's government is assiduously carrying out the peace agreement, where humanitarian assistance is being delivered and efforts are intensified to restore services. Deputy Prime Minister and Foreign Minister Demeke pointed out that Ethiopia is working to build a digital economy and expressed his belief that the forum will monitor the ideas raised in the conference to turn into results. United Nations under Secretary-General, Li Junhua, said in a video message that “we should work together to solve problems related to internet governance". Acting Executive Secretary of the UNECA, Antonio Pedro, indicated that the forum was attended by a large number of Africans.en
