What was this meeting?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>A. Peru&#39;s first one-day forum where government, business, civil society and academia talked internet policy as equals. The NGO Hiperderecho spent a year preparing it, and the agenda was set by an online poll of more than 500 users.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Q. What did it decide?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>A. Nothing binding \u2014 holding a neutral, decision-free dialogue was itself the point. Publishing all panel videos and reporting to the UN Secretariat formally plugged Peru into the recognised national-IGF network.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Q. Why should I care?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>A. Watching a 40-person first edition grow to 173 the following year is a compact case study in how multistakeholder dialogue takes root.<\/p>\n<h2>What Is Peru IGF?
