Pierre Ouedraogo, Technical Leader from Africa, Receives 2012 Jonathan<br>
B. Postel Service Award<br>
<br>
Internet Society recognizes his extensive work in advancing the<br>
Internet in Africa<br>
<br>
[Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada, 01 August 2012] -- The Internet<br>
Society today announced that its prestigious Jonathan B. Postel<br>
Service Award was presented to Pierre Ouedraogo for his exceptional<br>
contributions to the growth and vitality of the Internet in Africa.<br>
The international award committee, comprised of former Jonathan B.<br>
Postel award winners, noted that Mr. Ouedraogo played a significant<br>
role in the growth of the Internet in Africa and demonstrated an<br>
extraordinary commitment to training young engineers and participating<br>
in regional Internet organizations.<br>
<br>
Mr. Ouedraogo is the Director of Digital Francophonie at Organisation<br>
Internationale de la Francophonie (OIF) based in Paris, France. Over<br>
the years, he has established networks of IT experts to coordinate<br>
African efforts to develop IT and use it as a tool for development.<br>
Mr. Ouedraogo initiated many IT technical workshops in Africa and is a<br>
founding member of numerous African regional organizations, including<br>
AfriNIC (the African Internet Registry for IP addresses); AfTLD<br>
(African Internet Top Level Domain Names Association); AFNOG (African<br>
network operators group); AfCERT (African CERT network), and AfrICANN<br>
(African network of participants to the ICANN process).<br>
<br>
“Pierre Ouedraogo is a highly-regarded technical leader in Africa, and<br>
he has been instrumental in bringing the Internet to Burkina Faso as<br>
well as other French-speaking African countries,” said Lynn St. Amour,<br>
President and Chief Executive Officer of the Internet Society. “His<br>
commitment to the expansion of the Internet and encouragement of young<br>
engineers to help them build their skills through training workshops<br>
has had a profound impact on the growth of the Internet across<br>
Africa.”<br>
<br>
The Postel Award was established by the Internet Society to honour<br>
individuals or organisations that, like Jon Postel, have made<br>
outstanding contributions in service to the data communications<br>
community. The committee places particular emphasis on candidates who<br>
have supported and enabled others in addition to their own specific<br>
actions. The award is focused on sustained and substantial technical<br>
contributions, service to the community, and leadership.<br>
<br>
The Internet Society presented the award, including a US$20,000<br>
honorarium and a crystal engraved globe, during the 84th meeting of<br>
the Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF) held in Vancouver, British<br>
Columbia, Canada, July 29 - August 3, 2012.<br>
