Complete conference details
The 13th Forum on Internet Freedom in Africa includes pre-event days on 28–29 September and main event days on 30 September–1 October. The organizer says registration is open and expects more than 500 participants from Africa and beyond.
Eligibility requirements
Registration is open to prospective forum participants through the official FIFAfrica route. The earlier session-proposal deadline was 29 May 2026, so this record is for attendee registration rather than proposal submission.

- If travel is required, check invitation-letter timing, visa processing, accommodation and travel-support deadlines early.
