<br>
Yaounde, 25 November 2011 - The 3rd Network Information and<br>

recognition to her contribution to improving and sustaining Africa's<br>
Internet community. Dr. Nii Quaynor conveyor of AfNOG presented the<br>

<br>
For Dr. Nii, Quaynor the initiator of the Award, "Recognising Alice is<br>
for us a way to highlight the importance of the civil society and<br>
government's contribution to the growth of our local community. We are<br>
at a stage where we need to build a more coherent and strong<br>
multistakeholder community in order to address our current challenges<br>
to build a brighter future for Internet in Africa "<br>
<br>
Alice is Kenya's representative on the Internet Corporation for<br>
Assigned Names and Numbers Government Advisory Committee (ICANN, GAC)<br>

Kenya in September 2011 and convenes the East Africa Internet<br>
Governance Forum and the Kenya ICT Action Network (Kictanet). "For me,<br>
this award is a tribute to my work and contribution at the regional<br>
level, a great recognition from my role model and peers in the region.<br>
I have been dedicated to creating awareness and understanding in order<br>
to ensure that our region contributes meaningfully in global internet<br>
governance and policy processes and hope to continue to do so as<br>
internet governance becomes more and more significant." says Alice<br>
Munyua.<br>
<br>
