The event will discuss the impact of the quick and major changes in the use of the Internet that occurred in the last few months due to COVID-19 on the operations of organizations such as AFRINIC, Internet Service Providers and Cable Operators. It also discusses how the Internet has allowed business continuity during lockdowns and how governments, regulators, operators and the private sector have used the Internet to ease the disruption of our social and economic life. Last but not least, it will discuss how the Internet is being used in the fight against COVID-19. Participation is <strong><a style="color:rgb(37,133,178)" href="https://bit.ly/3gxrTMd" target="_blank">via Zoom</a></strong> in English and French.</p>

Ce webinaire, `` <strong>La résilience d'Internet en Afrique dans le contexte de COVID-19</strong> '' évalue l'impact croissant de COVID-19 sur les moyens de subsistance et le travail en Afrique et examine l'état de préparation de l'infrastructure Internet du continent pour aider à atténuer ces défis. L'événement discutera de l'impact des changements rapides et majeurs dans l'utilisation d'Internet survenus au cours des derniers mois en raison de COVID-19 sur les opérations d'organisations telles qu'AFRINIC, les fournisseurs de services Internet et les câblo-opérateurs. Il explique également comment Internet a permis la continuité des activités pendant les fermetures et comment les gouvernements, les régulateurs, les opérateurs et le secteur privé ont utilisé Internet pour faciliter la perturbation de notre vie sociale et économique. Enfin et surtout, il discutera de la manière dont Internet est utilisé dans la lutte contre COVID-19.
