The Next Generation Internet initiative is designed to create an internet of humans, that responds to our fundamental needs, including trust, security and inclusion. GÉANT is a project partner in the recently announced NGI_Trust grants and encourages applications to the Open Calls for funding in areas such as:
* Technical innovation in privacy enhancing technologies, such as cryptography, federated identity, security and privacy for Internet of Things (IoT), distributed ledgers and privacy-enhancing data transports and data at rest.
* The application of artificial intelligence / machine learning / neural networks to serve the user’s interests (such as addressing concerns arising from the impact of profiling and mass surveillance).
* Bootstrapping trust at the protocol level, to maintain a decentralised Internet infrastructure, for the establishment of trust, privacy (and security) between end users and services.
* Developing means for individuals to make more informed decisions about the relevance of information that they are asked to disclose when accessing and using services.
