the growing impact of COVID-19 on livelihoods and work in Africa and the readiness of the
continent's Internet infrastructure to help mitigate those challenges. The webinar discuss
the quick and major changes in the use of Internet that occurred in the last few months have
affected the operations of organizations such as AFRINIC, Internet Service Providers and

The webinar is expected to deliver comprehensive policy and regulatory recommendations
