15 February 2024

Geneva, Online

The WSIS+20 Forum High-Level Event, co-organized by ITU, UNESCO, UNDP and UNCTAD and co-hosted by ITU and the Swiss Confederation, will serve as a platform to review the progress, achievements, challenges, and opportunities of the WSIS follow-up process since the two phases of the Summit – Geneva in 2003 and Tunis in 2005.

The event will take place from 27 to 31 May 2024 in Geneva, Switzerland. The Open Consultation Process is an open and inclusive consultation with WSIS stakeholders to prepare for the event, including developing the event programme, identifying gaps in the implementation of the Geneva Plan of Action and the WSIS Action Lines, and contributing to the WSIS+20 review process.

All stakeholders are encouraged to actively engage in the Open Consultation Process (OCP) by participating in consultative meetings and submitting input through the official submission form
