[kictanet] Reminder: Forum on Internet Freedom in East Africa Sept 28 - 29

[Juliet Nanfuka.]

Greetings,
I trust that you are well. This is a quick reminder of the Forum on Internet
Freedom in East Africa taking place in Kampala, Uganda next week on Monday 28
and Tuesday 29 at Golf Course Hotel.
If you are in Kampala (which is a hive of Internet related talks and discussions
this and next week ) and are keen on discussing the intersection of human rights and the internet
please do register. We have an exciting line up of local and international
speakers who will be sharing their thoughts on internet freedom, access to
information, the economy of the internet, freedom of expression online and so
much more. Have a look at the Programme (including registration if in Kampala)
As such, we would like to create further awareness on the many discussions
pertaining to internet freedom in East Africa and encourage you to follow
hashtag #FIFEA to stay tuned to and contribute to the conversation and debates. Remember to
also follow us @opennetafrica @cipesaug
You are welcome to share your thoughts on Internet Freedom, reports, pictures,
digital security tips, and relevant interesting links using the hashtag too
