Giving voice to all stakeholders in an open and transparent decision-making process is a core goal of NTIA’s international engagement. We are working on a number of issues, from protecting the availability of WHOIS information to pushing for more effective membership oversight of the International Telecommunication Union. As we look to further build out our international agenda, we want to hear from stakeholders about the critical global policy areas we will face this year and beyond.
In a notice of inquiry [1], we are asking all interested stakeholders – businesses, civil society groups, the technical community, academics, and the general public to provide us with comments and recommendations. The input we receive will inform NTIA's international Internet policy priorities going forward.
While we are open to comments and policy suggestions on any issue, we have identified four broad topic areas and some key questions we think are especially important:
All stakeholders are invited to comment and suggest specific goals and actions that could be taken to achieve those goals. Comments are due July 2, 2018. With your help, NTIA will continue to do everything in its power to protect and promote an open and interoperable Internet, advocate for the free flow of information, and strengthen the global marketplace for American digital products and services.
