This Regional Roundtable by KICTANet and Paradigm Initiative explores a critical issue facing Africa's internet: fragmentation. A united and open web is essential for human rights in today's digital world, but changes in technology, standards, and policies threaten this unity. This roundtable discussion brought together stakeholders from across Africa—policymakers, civil society, and the private sector—to understand these risks and develop solutions. https://youtu.be/zyXkqooFnyk?si=vTo3Jsk_aJyu76mw -- *Kind Regards,* *David Indeje* *@**KICTANet* <https://www.kictanet.or.ke/> * Communications *_____________________________________ +254 (0) 711 385 945 | +254 (0) 734 024 856 KICTANet portals Connect With Us <https://linktr.ee/Kictanet> ______________________________________
