Preparations have started for this year’s African School on Internet Governance –  #AfriSIG24

AfriSIG 2024 will take place in Addis Ababa from 14 to 19 November immediately prior to the African Internet Governance Forum scheduled for 20 to 22 November. AfriSIG 2024 has two venues. Most sessions will be held at the conference centre of the United Nations Economic Commission for Africa (UNECA). Evening and weekend sessions will be at the Addis Hilton.

As with the 2023 edition, #AfriSIG24 will focus on data governance. #AfriSIG24 will build on the experience of 2023 and, in consultation with its partners, identify data governance-related concerns and priorities to be addressed in the sessions and practicum.

#AfriSIG24 participants will soon be announced. They are being selected from a pool of individuals nominated by civil society, governments, the media, the technical community, foundations, international organisations, the private sector, and academia.
