> I hope this email finds you well. Following our discussion during the
> AFRALO-AfrICANN session at ICANN81 and the review of the AFRALO community's
> statement,  I wanted to share my summary of the key recommendations
> provided by the speakers during the session.
>
> 1. Incorporating a Section on Existing Opportunities
> It was suggested to include a dedicated section in the statement
> highlighting existing opportunities to advance the use of AI in promoting
> and supporting a multilingual Internet. Examples of such opportunities
> include:
>
>    - The Coalition for  Digital Africa
>    - Smart Africa
>    - The Association of African Universities
>    - Making use of UA Day
>
> 2- Proposal for a Mapping Exercise
> Recommending a mapping exercise to understand relevant ongoing initiatives
> in this area. This would help identify the gaps, determine where ICANN can
> play a role and explore potential partnerships to maximise impact
>
> 3- Interpreting relevant technical documents into African Languages
> Encourage the AFRALO/African community to translate relevant technical
> documents into African languages to increase accessibility
>
> Please add any additional recommendations that you might have so that we
> can incorporate them and finalise the statement.
>
> Thank you and see you shortly at the AFRALO monthly meeting
>
> Kind regards
