In lieu of a CONCLUSION…
How to leverage the opportunities?:
transparency & accountability, public
engagement, open government…
participatory development, popular democracy
Social media to bridge ‘social/digital divides’?
Don’t lose sight of the big picture:
Internet based on freedom…may be ‘abused’…
rules are needed…but how to ensure that the ‘cure’
is not worse than the disease
One-size-DOESN’T-(always) fit-all :-)
