The Policy Network on Internet Fragmentation (PNIF)'s driving force is a community of diverse stakeholders aiming to contribute with their expertise and experience. All interested stakeholders can join an open dedicated mailing list and take active participation through regular meetings and others means of collaboration.
The community is continuously consulted on the thematic focus of the PNIF, its methodology and the so far produced outputs.
Within the PNIF is a Multistakeholder Working Group of experts which supports transforming community’s expressed views into concrete actions, such as outputs and actionable next steps.
