Good morning, Thank you Sarah for sharing the information. All, This MoU was prepared by AFRALO and AfTLD a few months ago, and its signature was planned to take place in Marrakech. Since the Chair of AfTLD can't make it to Marrakech, and the Chair of AFRALO wasn't in Kampala, we arranged its signature in 2 phases: Kampala (signed by AfTLD Chair) and Marrakech (signed by AFRALO Chair) We made a small siugnature ceremony in Kampala, and another small ceremony will take place in Marrakech.
