Hi everyone,
Yesterday, Caleb Ogundele and I organised and participated in a session at the recently-concluded Digital Rights Inclusion Forum 2019 here in Lagos, Nigeria called "*I**nternet Governance: Multi-stakeholderism and Participation in the Assigned Names and Numbers Space.*"

*(**Seun Ojedeji <https://icannwiki.org/Seun_Ojedeji>* of ALAC, AFRALO and ASO was meant to have joined us, but was unavoidably absent due to work obligations.)
Our session explained who ICANN is, their role in ensuring the interoperability and coordinating key technical and policy aspects of the underlying core infrastructure and the domain name system. Our discussion included explanations of the multistakeholder model, the ICANN structure, PDPs, GDPR and EPDPs and ways to contribute to and join ICANN,.
All in all, I hope and believe we had an engaging and interesting discussion, sharing what we do at ICANN. You can watch the *video recording *here: https://youtu.be/v_Pzfd6v4Sk
I will be putting together a short report about the session over the next week and will be sure to share it with you all.
Best regards,
Ore
