Every day, young Nigerians use the Internet to learn, create, connect, and discover opportunity. They also face some of its biggest challenges — the cost of access, patchy connectivity, cyberbullying, scams, misinformation, and the new questions AI is raising about trust, safety, and responsible use.

NYIGF 2026 is where that conversation moves from discussion to action. Themed “The Internet We Want,” this year’s forum asks not just what’s wrong with the Internet young people use today, but what they can actually do to help build something better — with youth leading the conversation throughout.
