Putting Cyber Norms in Practice: Implementing the UN GGE 2015 recommendations through national strategies and policies

“Putting Cyber Norms in Practice: Implementing the UN GGE 2015 recommendations through national strategies and policies” is a report written by Mika Kerttunen and Eneken Tikk. This report was commissioned by the GFCE, with support from the UK FCDO through the Global CCB Research Agenda 2021 process, after a knowledge gap was identified by the Task Force on CBMs/Norms in 2020.

Because each country has its own starting point, goal and trajectory for implementing the UN’s GGE 2015 recommendations, this Implementation Guide introduces various approaches that can be, and have been, adopted to implement norms of responsible state behaviour. The Implementation Guide seeks to facilitate, inform and promote collaborative and coordinated efforts to maintain and further develop an open, free, peaceful and stable cyberspace through adequate national, regional and global cybersecurity practices.
