Mothers of the Internet is an ongoing project done in collaboration with [[Bonface Witaba]] to ensure the histories and present-day work of women in the development of the Internet in Africa are preserved. The women and their work vary greatly. Some are long-time members of the community who have made lasting impact in Internet governance. Others, who we call NextGen, are beginning to show the power of their work. Some are involved with law enforcement, while others are involved in policy through an ICT lens, and still others focus their energy on empowering young women to enter the IG space. | Mothers of the Internet is an ongoing project done in collaboration with [[Bonface Witaba]] to ensure the histories and present-day work of women in the development of the Internet in Africa are preserved.
