The Global IP Alliance (âIP Allianceâ?) is a global consortium of IP-enabled communications services and application providers and others driving innovation and deployment of IP-enabled communications. The Global IP Alliance is committed to fulfilling the promise of IP-based communications by promoting a pragmatic and light handed public policy environment based on self governance and public-private partnerships to address social issues in the use of IP enabled communications. The Global IP Alliance members will develop a framework for global public policy that will:
1. Promote interoperability, interconnection and ubiquity of IP-enabled services and applications.
2. Support forward-looking processes to ensure that IP-enabled services and applications advance the social good through IP-enabled communications.
3. Ensure that users worldwide are allowed, to the fullest extent practical and economically feasible, to control their own communications experience as users of the Internet and IP-enabled communications.
4. The Global IP Alliance will work directly, and in cooperation with others to demonstrate to governments around the world that the IP-enabled communications industry is socially responsible and capable of self-governance.
