WSIS+20 sessions highlighted the role of IGFs in aligning regional voices and localising digital cooperation goals through multistakeholder engagement.

 

AI was a major cross-cutting theme, with discussions on ethics, discrimination, education, and responsible deployment.

 

YOUthDIG 2025 advanced bold proposals, from AI literacy and privacy safeguards to digital wellbeing and youth inclusion.

 

Quantum computing sparked early governance debates, focusing on cryptographic threats and the need for international coordination.

 

Age verification raised complex trade-offs, calling for proportionate, rights-based systems that protect without excluding.
