Abstract
Description
More than 50% of digital policy meetings and processes take place in International Geneva. We review the main events that took place in Geneva in May. Key issues related to security, e-commerce, and digital rights were prominent this month; others were less so. We round up the main global developments in May. Digital policy issues have become central in elections worldwide. This month, digital issues were in focus in European electoral campaigns. The European Union’s new legislation on data protection, the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), comes into effect a year from now. Are you GDPR-ready?
