Hi Jeremy, good morning,

I thank you for this very important information. I arrive in Nairobi on
September 26 at 16.20h
Go directly to the symposium for Giganet also attend this meeting.
Regarding the last point, I suggest that consideration be seeking financial
support to national platforms of the Internet Governance for workshops before
and after IGF international. This will allow national IGF to mobilize and to
prepare local actors for sub regional IGF. These are already supported by
ICANN, ISOC and some partners. From experience, and in the case of the DRC, I
managed to attract the interest of many technical players on the various
topics discussed at sub regional and international IGF. It would be a
nice connection
between the national and sub regional IGF.It is not lack of human resources but
a lack of political vision.
For this reason, in Central Africa, we opted for rotating the workshops in
each country of Central Africa as in West Africa, in East Africa and
Southern Africa. Central Africa is a sub regions where we have not yet
managed to bring concerted action on the ICT strategy.
