IEEE Global Policy Caucus

Our mission is to promote cooperation between technologists and governments around the world for the purpose of promoting technically sound laws and regulations that promote technology for the good of humanity.

Technology Policy For The Public Good

Our goals include:

Encouraging the multiple and beneficial uses of technology to advance the interests of humanity and serve the public good.

Educating policy makers and the public about the promise and challenges of technological innovation.

Providing neutral analysis of technology trends to help decision makers best capture and increase the public benefits derived from technology.

The IEEE Global Policy Caucus website provides a window into these activities to engage our members, the public, and policy-makers around the world on technology-related aspects of public policy.
