2009 MESSAGE FROM THE BOARD

AfrISPA 2009 “Sustainability for Greater Significance”

By Eric Osiakwan – AfrISPA’s Executive Secretary  

 

Over the year, AfrISPA has gained global significance by her work in lobbying for liberalisation of the telecoms market in Africa backed by efforts in establishing ISP Associations and the building of Internet eXchange Points as part of  Africa's Internet Infrastructure.  Much progress has being made in the understanding within policymakers,   regulators and political leaders as it was enshrined in the World Summit on Information Society Plan of Action that "governments   should facilitate the establishment of national and regional exchange centres”. All of these happened under a virtual institutional structure for AfrISPA and going forward this posed a risk to the scaling of such efforts

On behalf of the Executive Board, I would like to welcome all members to 2008, a year that holds a lot of promise for AfrISPA, I see it as a year of GREATER WORKS. In order words, in the last year, we did great things; fundamental of which was the commitment and process of reforming this great institution that we all laboured to see born and this year we will be building on that in order to achieve even greater works!
