<div dir="ltr">Hi Victor and ALL<br><br>Talking about education; I would like to say that I cannot imagine nowadays training an engineer without internet governance courses. Training on training governance is a big issue in Africa above all in french speaking countries. As Kivuva said, we must focus on internet governance; not only at ICANN. To address this issue, I think first step must be introducing internet governance courses at University.<br>By the way; we face a general problem of information and communication (press) on internet governance within African region. Access to information become more and more easier with mailing lists and other social network; but the main issue here, is informations <span id="ecxresult_box" class="ecxshort_text" lang="en"><span class="ecxhps">exploitation</span> for a better usage of actors and populations.<br><br>Reagards!<br><br>Mamadou <span class="ecxhps"></span><span class="ecxhps"></span></span><br><br><div>> Date: Mon, 28 Jul 2014 12:20:43 +0300<br>> From: Kivuva@transworldafrica.com<br>> To: ndonnang@nvconsulting.biz; africann@afrinic.net<br>> Subject: Re: [AfrICANN-discuss] "Vint Cerf on ICANN and NTIA"<br>> CC: <br>> <br>> On empowering our comrades within the continent, we should not only<br>> focus on ICANN.
