> _*BACKGROUND*_
>
> In December of 2003, the world came together in Geneva at the World
> Summit on Information Society (WSIS) to declare a âcommon desire and
> commitment to build a people-centred, inclusive and development-oriented
> Information Society,â and thereby ushered in an era of harnessing the
> power of information and communication technology (ICT) to contribute to
> the achievement of the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs). The
> resulting Geneva Plan of Action established targets and the eleven
> action lines, which guide development in specific areas.
>
> The second phase of WSIS, conducted in Tunis in 2005, built upon the
> achievements of the Geneva Plan, with the resulting Tunis Agenda
> addressing additional issues, such as financing and internet governance.
> Paragraph 111 of the Tunis Agenda requested the General Assembly to
> undertake the overall review of the implementation of the outcomes of
> the World Summit on the Information Society in 2015. This review "will
> be concluded by a two-day high-level meeting of the General Assembly in
> December 2015, to be preceded by an intergovernmental process that also
> takes into account inputs from all relevant stakeholders of the World
> Summit on the Information Society," as specified in UN General Assembly
> Resolution 68/320.
