During the [[IGF|Internet Governance Forum]] in Kenya on July 29, 2010, DCA urged participants to support its .africa application. According to her, "After the high level endorsements we received as per the application, we are now in the process of reaching out to the technical community to gain support based on the merit and the benefits of the initiative, and hoping that such forums as IGF would create a neutral platform for debate and raising issues with the .africa domain name and internet governance." She also said that the DCA governance model is based on the Kenya Network Information Center's ([[KeNIC]]) multi-stakeholder model.<ref> | During the [[IGF|Internet Governance Forum]] in Kenya on July 29, 2010, DCA urged participants to support its .africa application.
