[isoc-ny] WEBCAST TODAY: Kenya Internet Governance Forum #KIGF2017

[ISOC-NY announcements]

This is underway. It follows 3 days of the Kenya School of Internet
Governance Workshops, so a well focused group of participants. In previous
years the KIGF has often highlighted topics only just looming on other
national agendas, and their conclusions have wide influence. This year the
emphasis is on Internet and Elections.
