>>>> 
>>>>
>>>>    1. We call upon the ICANN Org to set aside adequate resources as

>>>>    awareness on DNS Abuse in its global multistakeholder community and how the
>>>>    same can be mitigated.
>>>>    2. Fighting the DNS Abuse shouldn’t turn in a content regulation
>>>>    which is out of the ICANN remit. In fact, what is considered as content
>>>>    abuse in a country may be a freedom of expression in another. AFRALO would
>>>>    not accept any effort to fight DNS Abuse that becomes a content regulation.
>>>>    In view of this, we call upon the ICANN organization to facilitate more
>>>>    discussions on DNS Abuse at Regional Level through the coordination of
>>>>    Policy, GSE and ICANN Learn teams with African community leadership to
>>>>    ensure effective deliberation.
>>>>    3. We call upon the ICANN Org through the office of the Chief
>>>>    Technical Officer to embrace reporting on DNS abuse in clear and simple
>>>>    language geared towards end users who are major consumers of DNS Products
>>>>    and services.
