[DCAD] Updated List of Disability-Focused Workshops at IGF 2024

[Emmanuel Nnaemeka Vitus]

Good day everyone

I think this two (2) topics should be included for accessibility. For the
cybersecurity area, I can facilitate that segment and also work on the
empowerment of civil society and bridging gaps in policy influence.


1. IGF 2024 WS #266 Empowering Civil Society: Bridging Gaps in Policy
Influence

2. IGF 2024 WS #31 Cybersecurity in AI: balancing innovation and risks
