Norway will host the United Nations Internet Governance Forum (IGF) in June 2025, positioning the country as the stage for the world’s largest forum dedicated to shaping the future of the Internet.
Around 4,000 physical attendees and an equal number of virtual participants are expected to participate, making it the largest UN meeting ever held in Norway.
The forum, which has established itself as a key platform for discussing Internet governance, will bring together governments, the private sector, civil society, academics, and technical experts.
Norway and Russia were candidates to host the IGF 2025. Under-Secretary-General Li Junhua has on behalf of the UN accepted Norway’s offer to host the forum.
