South African National Broadband Forum

Access to broadband is an essential enabler of active citizenship in today's world. With affordable broadband, the enormous potential for socio-economic, cultural, and educational development in South Africa can be realised.

The Association for Progressive Communications; South Africa Connect; Southern African NGO Network (SANGONeT); and The Shuttleworth Foundation are convened a one-day event as a first step towards drafting a framework for a national broadband strategy for South Africa.
