Description

The role of digital citizenship in contemporary society can be observed from a number of different aspects, social, educational, institutional, industrial and individual. In this panel, we explore the role of society and industry in the shaping of digital citizenry. This panel, part of 3-panel series held in different regions of the world, will present a range of propositions around the theme of digital citizenry, industry and social influence. From this position, participants will be invited to discuss a number of areas to explore the roles of industry, governance and societal expectations and norms which may influence the individual digital citizen’s behaviour. Through this discourse, we aim to facilitate further discussion on this phenomenon to inform the understanding of and arrive and a consensus definition of the term digital citizenry.
