Background
Submarine cable systems are the backbone of global connectivity, carrying over 95% of international communications and internet traffic. Africa’s digital transformation and socio-economic development are highly dependent on the security, resilience, and expansion of these systems. However, submarine cables face multiple risks including physical damage, cyber threats, inadequate redundancy, and governance challenges.
To address these issues, the African Telecommunications Union (ATU), in partnership with the Africa Subsea Ecosystem Forum (ASEF) is organizing an online Capacity Building Workshop on Submarine Cable Resilience. The workshop will enhance the technical, policy, and regulatory knowledge of African stakeholders to safeguard this critical infrastructure.
