The Internet Society
The Society is a non-profit, non-governmental, international, professional membership organisation. Its more than 150 organisations and 16,000 individual members in over 180 nations worldwide represent a veritable who's who of the Internet community.
The South African chapter of the Internet Society is inclusive and members represent a broad cross section of the Internet community in South Africa.
The work of the Internet Society focuses on four "pillars": standards, public policy, education and outreach, and community.
The South African chapter (ISOC-ZA) was formed in 1997 and offers members an opportunity to assist in growing the internet society in our country. Meetings on relevant topics are held regularly, volunteers assist to create more awareness of the internet and members are encouraged to get involved in the development of national policy relating to the Internet.
Membership is free
