How can accessibility in rural areas of Africa be improved? What are the challenges for women and girls in terms of internet access? How are internet shutdowns affecting African users? These are some of the issues that Josephine Miliza, Sophie Ngassa and Amanda Manyame focus on, as African experts on internet access with a strong gender perspective.
How does the internet work? What is an internet protocol? What types of disruptions do we face and what causes them? These were some of the questions addressed during the first sessions of the School, which focused on internet architecture and basic internet governance concepts.
For six days, 45 participants from 23 countries will gather at sessions, lectures and workshops to gain greater insight on internet governance processes at the local, national, regional, sub-regional and global levels.
