>> The Internet Society Africa Regional Bureau is organizing the first ever Africa wide Internet Standards Forum that will take place in Serekunda, Gambia on May 12th 2012 from 9.00am GMT to 1.00pm GMT. The forum will also be streamed live on the online conferencing tool Webex. The forum will discuss Internet standards and the role the Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF) plays in setting open Internet standards. African participation in IETF activities has been limited and this forum is an effort to encourage African participation in the IETF, especially for graduating class, Masters and Ph.D. level University students and instructors in order for Africa to play a role in the development of the Internet.
>> 
>> University students, lecturers, researchers and Internet enthusiasts from Africa interested in learning about open Internet Standards are encouraged to attend. To attend, you can register online and participate remotely or attend the session at a participating local hub in your country. Details of the participating hubs (hosted by ISOC African chapters) will be made available by the 6th of May 2012. For those who will be in Gambia already attending AfNOG, details of the meeting room will be made available before the day of the forum.
