+1 I totally agree with Mohamed. ICANN45 in Toronto will mark the launch or the presentation of ICANN's Strategy for Africa and It is important for AfrALO-AfrICANN community to keep focusing on that important initiative. The ICANN Africa Strategy working group (ICANN-ASWG) sent sometimes ago a questionnaire to this mailing list and I hope all of us took time to complete that questionnaire. So to join what Mohamed said, I suggest that our joint meeting in Toronto be an occasion to adopt a common statement on what can be the best ICANN strategy plan for Africa.

Choosing Dr.Tarik Kamil as an advisor and Dr.Nii is clear signals tof this new approach. I suggest the meeting to focus on "ICANN Strategic Approach Towards Africa", we can invite ICANN CEO "Chedi", Tarik Kamil, Nii and others involved to give their prospective on how Africa can utilize this opportunity. The meeting will be a good chance also for the community to discuss about our areas of focus and interest and how ICANN and the internet community could collaborate .

Dear all, As we did during the previous ICANN meetings, we will discuss an issue or subject of interest to our region at the scheduled AFRALO / AfrICANN meeting in Toronto. As a result of this meeting, we will come out, as usual, with a common statement on the above subject.
The aim of this message is to ask you to please, suggest a theme that you think would be the most pertinent in this regard. We would appreciate your proposal being sent before September 14. The subject will be chosen on the basis of the importance of its support on the two lists AfrICANN and AFRALO.
It should be noted that the interest of this tradition, which we organize together since Brussels, is to express the point of view of the African ICANN community on current issues and thus give more visibility for our region.
Best Regards
---------------------------------- Chers tous,
Comme nous l'avons fait au cours des précédentes réunions de l'ICANN, nous allons organiser à Toronto la réunion conjointe AFRALO/AfrICANN pour débattre d’une question ou d’un sujet d'intérêt pour notre région. À la suite de cette réunion, nous allons sortir comme d'habitude, avec une déclaration commune sur le sujet choisi.
Le but de ce message est de vous demander de bien vouloir proposer un thème que vous pensez être le plus pertinent à cet égard. Nous apprécierions que la proposition de thème soit envoyée avant 14 Septembre. Le sujet choisi devra avoir l’approbation des deux listes AfrICANN et Afralo.
Il est à noter que l'intérêt de cette tradition que nous organisons ensemble depuis Bruxelles, est d'exprimer le point de vue de la communauté africaine de l'ICANN sur les questions d'actualité et de donner ainsi plus de visibilité pour notre région.
