Change Makers How can we ensure that marginalized communities, such as women, youth, people with disabilities, and marginalised groups, are included in efforts to promote Internet freedom in Africa? In proposing and advancing multi-stakeholder approaches to Internet governance, it is imperative that each of the stakeholder groups is inclusive. It is incumbent on civil society actors to play their traditional role of advocacy in this regard. They should champion the cause of inclusivity. Not only should the civil society sector include representatives of the marginalized groups within their fold, they need to elevate and amplify the voices of such groups. Civil society actors will not be credible or effective if they are not themselves inclusive. Civil society organizations should make deliberate efforts to support or conduct research to ascertain how new policy proposals or the content of proposed laws will likely impact members of the various marginalized groups and feed their findings into the policy or legislative process to properly address the issues. 16 A CIPESA Series
