Thank you, Anriette for posting;
This storify is a terrific model for documenting, celebrating, educating and outreach - what a meaningful event. I would also want to use this platform for similar IG projects and in the classroom to showcase student work.
On a side note, I wonder if anyone has read this yet: Exercising Human Rights: Gender, Agency and Practice by Robin Readhead
https://www.routledge.com/products/9780415833011?utm_source=adestra&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=sbu1_leh_3rf_1em_1pol_rf2v15_bls15_80034_rainirandglobalpol
The book's focus isn't directly related to Internet Governance per se, however the intersection of regimes of visuality and human rights (women's and indigenous) might relate in terms of online content production, platform design, access, and literacy.
All the best,
Robert

HI all
Thanks Anriette for sharing this, and the whole team who organized this
event... Just wanted to join the chorus of Thumbs Up for this
initiative: powerful and empowering way of using social media and
incorporating a gender perspective right from the outside on those
techie/rights topics that exercise many of us at present.
Best Practice example of Storify to curate an event on the ground and
online. Really enjoyed reading it too and getting a sense of the African
Continent"s context-specifics of debates around human rights online, NN,
and Zero-Rating..
I assume Selfie Sticks were engaged in those last images...(:))
