- SOPA and PIPA,
- Support to the new gTLDs applicants,
- IPv4 - IPv6 migration,
- Legal provisions for the cyber-security and cyber-criminality.
During the 8 February call, the AFRALO members selected 2 of the 5 proposed themes that they found the most appropriate: Support to the new gTLDs applicants and dissemination of the African content.
