NetMission Academy

The NetMission Academy is a series of online sessions designed to equip youth with the knowledge and discussion skills to participate in Internet policymaking. The sessions will include one orientation webinar, followed by 7 training workshops. These 1.5-hour workshops will be interactive discussion sessions, with expert guest speakers selected for each topic. Selected fellows will be assigned into thematic groups to research and prepare for the respective session as a host.

Asia Pacific Youth IGF (yIGF)

Youth Internet Governance Forum (yIGF) is a 4-day-3-night preparation camp for the youth to participate in APrIGF and to open their door to Internet policy discussion. It serves as an open platform for the youth to express and interchange their ideas and thoughts on issues of Internet governance. It aims to raise youth’s awareness of Internet governance discourse and to engage youth in policy discussion and the decision-making process.

Hong Kong Youth IGF (HKyIGF)

Hong Kong Youth Internet Governance Forum (HKYIGF) is a platform for local youth to learn about Internet governance and voice out their opinions. Recognized by the IGF secretariat of United Nations, it also serves as the bridge to the wider Asia youth community and the global dialogue.

The first HKYIGF was initiated by NetMission.Asia in 2010 after a group of young ambassadors attending the global IGF organized by the United Nations in 2009. After the meetings, they have the feeling that it is important to encourage more youth and teenagers as one of the major Internet users to engage in the Internet Governance discussions. In the following years, it was rebranded into NetY Programme, and then re-introduced as HKYIGF in 2016. More information at hk.yigf.asia.
