Review

2024 special edition - WSIS+20: Reimagining horizons of dignity, equity and justice for our digital future

"GISWatch 2011 offers timely commentary on the future of the internet as an open and shared platform that everyone has the right to access."
- Frank La Rue, UN Special Rapporteur
"The project has unique value as it provides a global but detailed overview of different key topics. It helps people to get the arguments and diverse/complementary detailed views about topics.
In the long term, some of the topics should be revisited to monitor evolution and update the content to keep it relevant"
- Leandro Navarro, Pangea, Spain - GISWatch author
"The annual GISWatch reports have become must-read material for analysts and activists concerned with the social, economic and political effects of information and communication technologies."
- GISWatch reports a "must-read"
