**Responsibilities**:
The second phase of the World Summit on the Information Society (WSIS) held in Tunis on ¿¿16-18 November 2005, requested the Secretary-General, amongst other, to convene “a ¿new forum for multi-stakeholder policy dialogue - the Internet Governance Forum (IGF). ¿The Internet Governance Forum Secretariat is based in the United Nations Office at ¿Geneva (UNOG). The mandate of the IGF, set out in Paragraph 72 of the Tunis Agenda for ¿the Information Society is to discuss the main public policy issues related to Internet ¿governance in order to foster the sustainability, robustness, security, stability and ¿development of the Internet. ¿
A report produced by the UN General Assembly Economic and Social Council (ECOSOC) ¿Working Group on Improvements to the IGF called for the development of more tangible ¿outputs to ‘enhance the impact of the IGF on global Internet governance and policy’. To ¿enrich the potential for IGF outputs, the IGF Multistakeholder Advisory Group (MAG) ¿developed an intersessional programme intended to complement other IGF activities. The ¿outputs from IGF intersessional activities are intended to become robust resources, to serve ¿as inputs into other pertinent forums, and to evolve and grow over time. ¿
- ¿
The intersessional work streams offer substantive ways for the IGF ¿community to produce more concrete outcomes and inform policy discussions. They take forms of Best Practice Forums (BPFs) and Policy Networks (PNs), among others. While the BPFs focus on gathering good practices of a particular Internet governance issue, the PNs look more in depth into the nature of the issue, status quo, good and not so good practices, and help navigate the ways forward. Both forms of intersessional work produce substantive outputs through an open, inclusive and multistakeholder methodology. These outputs have ¿already been useful in informing policy debates, and they are also viewed as iterative materials ¿that are not only flexible but also ‘living’ in the sense that they can be updated at any time ¿to accommodate the pace of technological change faced by internet policymakers.

Under the supervision of the IGF Programme and Technology Manager of the IGF ¿Secretariat, The consultant will be responsible for facilitating and documenting the work related to convening of the one BPF and one PN, recommended by the IGF MAG, related to the following topics:
1. Best Practice Forum on Cybersecurity
2. Policy Network on Internet Fragmentation
The Consultant will be responsible for carrying out tasks related to hosting ¿and reporting on IGF BPF and PN meetings, synthesis and drafting of outputs, ¿presenting and discussing them during dedicated sessions at the 18th Annual Meeting of the ¿Internet Governance Forum.

Qualifications/special skills
Master’s degree in information communication technologies, social sciences, ¿development studies, management or other relevant disciplines or equivalent fields, ¿or 8 years of relevant work experience.¿
A minimum of 5 years of professional experience including analytical work related ¿to ICT, Internet governance, digital public policy-making, development management, ¿participatory governance, capacity building, etc.
