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. https://www.icann.org/resources/pages/bios-2011-08-05-en#titi-akinsanmi
I feel Titi has all the qualities to represent us as an ALAC delegate to the NomCom coming from the AFRALO.

Il est très regrettable que la situation ait tellement dégénéré que des candidats de valeur comme Mary Uduma doivent se désister. J'aimerais proposer un autre candidat de valeur au poste de délégué de l'ALAC au NomCom, à savoir Titi Akinsanmi. Titi Akinsanmi est un expert en politique numérique qui occupe actuellement le poste de responsable des politiques et des relations gouvernementales pour l'Afrique francophone et occidentale chez Google.
La devise de Titi est d’inspirer, d’informer, d’impliquer et d’impacter le monde sur des questions relatives à l’internet et à la société mondiaux, à l’économie numérique, aux politiques et à la gouvernance numérique.
Forte de 19 ans d’expérience, elle a participé directement aux processus mondiaux d’élaboration des politiques, renforcé les capacités et la stratégie, et permet la mise en œuvre de stratégies relatives à la gouvernance de l’Internet et à l’économie numérique.
De défendre le rôle et l'inclusion des jeunes du monde entier qui sont 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 de Titi nécessite une interdisciplinarité intense.
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 continent peuvent et doivent se positionner développer durablement l’économie numérique.
Connaissant toutes sortes de pensées divergentes, son expérience couvre les secteurs public et privé, notamment auprès de diverses institutions internationales, dont le Centre d'information des réseaux africains (AfriNIC), l'Institut de la Banque mondiale, IICD, Mindset, UN-GAID, UNECA, SchoolNet Africa et MTech Communications.
Titi a initié, géré et dirigé la réalisation de projets et d'initiatives dans les domaines des TIC et du développement, des TIC et de l'éducation, de la société de l'information, de la gouvernance de l'Internet, des produits et services à valeur ajoutée dans les télécommunications au Nigeria, en Afrique du Sud et dans plus de 30 autres pays.
Diplômée en anglais de l'Université Obafemi Awolowo au Nigéria, Titi est titulaire d'une maîtrise en gestion de l'Université de Witwatersrand, d'une maîtrise en common law de l'Université de Londres, d'un programme de maîtrise en droit de l'Université York et Doctorant au Centre Berkman Klein pour l'Internet et la société à l'Université de Harvard.
Titi a été nommée à l'ALAC par le NomCom en 2011. https://www.icann.org/resources/pages/bios-2011-08-05-en#titi-akinsanmi
Je pense que Titi a toutes les qualités pour nous représenter en tant que délégué de l'ALAC au NomCom issu de la famille d'AFRALO.
