Dear All,
It is very sad that the situation has degenerated so much that valuable
candidates like Mary Uduma has to desist.
I would like to nominate another valuable candidate to the position of
the ALAC delegate to the NomCom, who is Titi Akinsanmi.
Titi Akinsanmi is Digital Policy expert who currently serves as Policy
and Government Relations Lead for West and Francophone Africa at Google.
Titi’s motto is to inspire, inform, involve and impact the world on
issues around global internet and society, digital economy, policy and
digital governance.
With 19 years of experience, she has directly engaged with global policy
development processes, built capacity and strategy, and is enabling the
implementation of strategies as it relates to Internet governance and
the digital economy.
From making a case for the role and inclusion of youth globally who are
primarily at the forefront of the digital ecosystem to helping
governments shape the policy and regulatory environment as it relates to
the role of intermediaries, content creation & sharing, data privacy and
cybersecurity, Titi’s work requires intense interdisciplinarity.
She is a key opinion shaper and connector in the area of Digital Public
Policy in Africa and beyond with extensive cross-sectoral networks and
know how on the digital economy in Africa – and in reverse how those
with interest on the continent can and should position themselves to
sustainably grow the Digital Economy.
An against all odds connector of disparate thoughts, her experience
spans both the public and private sectors, consulting for a range of
international institutions including African Network Information Centre
(AfriNIC), the World Bank Institute, IICD, Mindset, UN-GAID, UNECA,
SchoolNet Africa and MTech Communications.
Titi has initiated, managed and led delivery on projects and initiatives
for ICT & development, ICTs & Education, the Information Society,
Internet Governance, Telecom Value-Added Products & Services within
Nigeria, South Africa and across over 30 other nations globally.
Originally a graduate of English language from Obafemi Awolowo
University in Nigeria, Titi has a Masters degree in Management from the
University of Witwatersrand, Masters in Common Law from the University
of London, an ongoing Masters in Law degree program at the York
University and currently a PhD fellow at Berkman Klein Center for
Internet and Society at Harvard University.
Titi was a NomCom appointee to the ALAC in 2011.

I feel Titi has all the qualities to represent us as an ALAC delegate to
the NomCom coming from the AFRALO.
Best regards

principalement à l'avant-garde de l'écosystème numérique en aidant les
gouvernements à façonner l'environnement politique et réglementaire en
ce qui concerne le rôle des intermédiaires, la création et le partage de
contenu, la confidentialité des données et la cybersécurité, Le travail

Elle est un acteur clé dans le domaine des politiques publiques
numériques en Afrique et au-delà, dotée de vastes réseaux
intersectoriels et d'un savoir-faire en matière d'économie numérique en
Afrique - et inversement, comment ceux qui sont intéressés par le
