Africa ranks 3rd in ALS accreditation in 13 years

In over a decade of accreditation for the At-Large Structures (ALS) by the At-Large Advisory Committee (ALAC, Africa recorded 42 and third in the category, reports ITRealms.

This 42 is coming out of the world five regions, just as Latin America and the Carribbean Islands, topped the ranking with 50 ALS within the period under review.

Also coming second is the Asia Pacific with 44 ALSes, while Europe recorded 37 and North America 27.

This, ITRealms reports is an average of 14 ALSes each year.

Although, it was gathered that an estimated 33 per cent of ALSes are Internet Society Chapters from across the globe.

ITRealms recalls that since September 2003 when the first ALS, the Internet Society Italy Chapter, the At-Large Community has seen a steady increase of ALSes.


ALS is a wholly independent organization from ICANN, whether it is an Internet-related consumer rights groups or an academic organization, ALSes share the passion in furthering the development of Information and Communication Technologies and contributing to policy activities that influence the technical coordination of the Domain Name Systems.
