Dear community members,
most educational institutions across the African region areshutdown especially
from the face-to-face classroom setup due to covid-19. Thisis a dire situation,
if not well addressed, the region is bound to see thelowest literacy levels to
affect generations.
Many schools have shifted to what is known as Open, Distanceand e-Learning
(ODEL) model, which to me, seems ideal if internet support is provisioned.
Therefore, I want to suggest that during the AFRALO-AfrICANNmeeting, there
should be profound discussions around the issue of zero-ratingor free Internet
provision to all educational institutions from Nursery toUniversity.
I thank you,

Hi all,
I like to propose a topic about Managed dns servers ( like OpenDns, 9.9.9.9,
1.1.1.2; 1.1.1.3 and many other): - What are the benefits of these services?-
What are the impacts of internet stability and openings?- Can we trust the
managed DNS services.There are many questions and we can have a very good
discussion about this topic. Kind regards, Chattaoui Abdelhakim
