[AFRI-Discuss] Call for Topics: Joint AFRALO-AfrICANN meeting - ICANN68 (Virtual)

[Barrack Otieno]

Hi Pastor Peters,

By all means. Actually while drafting the proposed topic, i my mind was
gravitating around the community though i used DNS to try and ensure we are
within ICANNs remit. I support the proposed modification. We are facing
new challenges such ad ZOOM overload, ZOOM bombing, managing group dynamics
in an online context which requires a new form of resilience.

Best Regards
