On 21 July, 2021, we held a webinar to launch the Measuring Internet Resilience in Africa (MIRA) project.
The joint Internet Society – AFRINIC initiative seeks to determine levels of Internet resilience in African countries. The initiative has already began conducting various measurements as outlined in the MIRA project overview and MIRA measurement infrastructure has been deployed in 11 countries so far, with 25 MIRA pods actively collecting data on latency, upload and download speeds.
Participants were able to get update on our work, the measurements taken so far and how they could participate in the MIRA project. We also presented our ongoing work to build an Internet Resilience Index, for which more than 20 indicators have been identified.
