Expression of Interest for the Operation of the DotAfrica

DotAfrica will be adding value to the namespace as a recognizable phrase which focuses on the African identity. It is likely to capture the essence of the community served; DotAfrica will serve a community which spans over a large portion of region, therefore providing registrants with accrued possibilities for establishing their Internet presence. It is expected that the Africa small and medium size enterprises will greatly benefit from DotAfrica, as they thrive beyond their local markets to invade the regional and continental marketplace. The Internet will therefore become a platform for growth of the Africa business.

The introduction of the DotAfrica will create an attractive regional home for the Pan-African Internet community; this will be the first sponsored registry to be operating from Africa and therefore serving the specific needs of its communities.

Within this background, the African Union Commission is seeking the services of interested entities to operate the DotAfrica gtld.

Kigali Protocol under revision

Comments and amendments


The protocol on the policy and regulatory framework for the NEPAD ICT Broadband Infrastructure Network (NEPAD Network) was developed by 14 countries of Eastern and Southern Africa. It is the enabling environment for the development of the continental NEPAD Network comprising of Uhurunet submarine cable and Umojanet cross-border terrestrial network

The protocol was signed in Kigali, Rwanda, by 12 countries and has so far been ratified by 8 of the 12 countries that signed it. It came into force after it was ratified by more than half of the countries that signed it, and now that it is in force, any Africa country can accede to it.

The NEPAD Planning and Coordinating Agency through its e-Africa Programme (previously known as the NEPAD e-Africa Commission), wishes to align as many African countries as possible towards the protocol, and is offering all countries across Africa an opportunity to review the protocol and propose possible amendments to it.

The Inter-Governmental Assembly (IGA), comprised of the countries that signed the protocol has already proposed some amendments to the protocol and the version of the “protocol under revision” contains the amendments proposed by the IGA.

The NEPAD Agency is therefore calling upon Ministries responsible for ICTs to involve all ICT stakeholders (ICT Policy Advisors, Regulatory bodies, telecom operators, Civil Society, Academia, ICT service providers, etc) in the review of the protocol.

Countries wishing to involve the NEPAD e-Africa Programme in their national reviews of the protocol should contact the Acting Head of the NEPAD e-Africa Programme on:

Tel: +2712 8414661,

Fax: +27128414094.

Email: ekatiti@eafricacommission.org or ekatiti@nepad.org
On completion of the review at the country level, the Ministry responsible for ICTs should forward the proposed amendments to Dr. Edmund Katiti, the Acting Head of the NEPAD e-Africa Programme, at the above email address.

The deadline for submission of proposed amendments is June 30, 2011.
